Mountain Goats, The. The Coroner's Gambit. Zeneszám

when death came calling today,

i heard the gentle grace of his cadences.

i couldn't say no.

i couldn't say no.



when he showed me his new silk scarves

laid out on a shiny black plastic tray,

couldn't say, couldn't say, couldn't say, couldn't say, couldn't say no.

i couldn't say no.



and i'm sorry i couldn't.

do you know how badly i wanted to?

didn't want, didn't want, didn't want, didn't want, didn't want to lose you,

but his smile was dazzling mmmm,

and his eyes were sparkling like moonlight on the water at midnight.

couldn't say, couldn't say, couldn't say, couldn't say, couldn't say, couldn't say no.

i couldn't say no.
