Magnolia Queen

Magnolia Queen, Magnolia Queen

Launch one thousand ships

Oh, carry me back to the in-between

Magnolia Queen, Magnolia Queen

 

The shadows will dance, the shadows will dance

The fire burns hot

From the iron king cobra’s trance

The shadows will dance, the shadows will dance

 

Oh, carry me home, oh carry me home

Through the absinthe seas

Watching the watchman mumble and drone

Oh, carry me home, oh carry me home

 

Whittling the trees, whittling the trees

Planets do align

To the face of the Magnolia Queen

Oh, only to the Magnolia Queen
