The Fiery Furnaces Automatic Husband lyrics

Thanks for asking, yes, it's true
We've been waiting for you, we've been waiting for you
Persuade your husband
He should stay at our disposal for today
And take down everything we say

About the new school bus assistant stuck in charge
Of leaving seven sleepy children in their seats in a trance
Induced by air conditioning

So I went back up to our room
And told my husband to sit down on the end table
And that he was getting very sleepy
When his eyes went out
I put the pen back in his left hand

At phases 8 and 31, the four faculties are done
But the principals are some
The solar period, if you look is like the bishop in the brook

So it says in this book

About the new school bus assistant stuck in charge
Of leaving seven sleepy children in their seats in a trance
Induced by air conditioning

And don't forget the imaginary map
Of the manifestations of murder making
Owned by the undertaker's office
Otherwise known as the Cadaverous Cosmeticians
Local number dead as a doornail in a church mouse's chin

Or so said the birth chart I sent away to New Mexico
For it was made by a special commission
Of Navajo basketball coaches and blond ladies
