The Ballad of LuLu Ash
When I was 9 I saw a man sleeping at my feet
His head on stone, his feet on grass, his heart no longer beat
So I put myself inside a box and hid away the key
And waited for the time you'd come along and set me free
When I was 12 I saw a man lying next to me
He said "my dear your words can hurt, so silent we must be"
So I put myself inside a box and hid away the key
And waited for the time you'd come along and set me free
At 39 I saw a woman sitting in a tree
Her hound it made a fearful noise as it sat upon my knee
So I put myself inside a box and hid away the key
And waited for the time you'd come along and set me free
I drove & drove for miles and time until I reached the sea
The crab, the fish a perfect catch for anyone to see
I begged for you to marry me, but you said it would never be
So I've put myself inside the box... and I've thrown away the key...
His head on stone, his feet on grass, his heart no longer beat
So I put myself inside a box and hid away the key
And waited for the time you'd come along and set me free
When I was 12 I saw a man lying next to me
He said "my dear your words can hurt, so silent we must be"
So I put myself inside a box and hid away the key
And waited for the time you'd come along and set me free
At 39 I saw a woman sitting in a tree
Her hound it made a fearful noise as it sat upon my knee
So I put myself inside a box and hid away the key
And waited for the time you'd come along and set me free
I drove & drove for miles and time until I reached the sea
The crab, the fish a perfect catch for anyone to see
I begged for you to marry me, but you said it would never be
So I've put myself inside the box... and I've thrown away the key...
