lyrics

Lamplighter Anne, she works her hands down to the bone;
I hear she's lonely as the oxen pulling bodies in their chariots of stone
Jane, I wrote a song about her name to stake my claim
upon her valleys and Virginias, sleeping canyons overcame

Well it's open season, that's the reason why I'm running
Yeah it's open season on me!
I'm terrified and freezing with my bandage all undone
and it is open season on me!

My heart is pounding, heavy set! My spirit leaves its oubliette!
I'm fearful to the fearsomest degree!
I'm passing out in poison oak; the lamps you lit unmade me,
don't forsake another sawmill amputee!

I'm dragging daughters away with me
We're crossing deep waters away from thee
I'm dragging daughters you'll never see again,
and I love your daughter. And I love your daughter

It's open season, that's the reason why I'm running
Yeah it's open season on me!
I'm terrified and freezing with my bandage all undone
and it is open season on me!

And I am carrying your daughter through the wreckage that I wrought;
I'll let her sleep inside my armor if she needs
And though every day I'm fearing, man, there ain't no fear so fearsome
it could scare the living lions out of me
