Have you met my Sister Magpie

She wants to have a piece of your mind

Among the bright young things she keeps

She's a relic from the 70's



Sister Magpie

tried to steal the moon because it shines

and no one wants to look you in the eye

Sister Magpie



flossed her teeth with fishing line

washes off her face with turpentine

She'll stay in bed if so she please

but you never know just where you might meet



Sister Magpie

tried to steal the moon because it shines...

but at least she knows how to

Fly, High, My Sister Magpie

With your wings you touched my blackened sky

Mad Sister Magpie



Good morning Sister Magpie please

tell me where did you get all those dreams

And my how wild your garden grows

won't you show me all the years you stole?
