Regina Spektor - Mary Ann lyrics

Miss Mary Ann

Kept her man

In porcupine gloves, in porcupine gloves

And on that day

As scheduled

They made porcupine love, porcupine love

So stiff and stuck and prickly

He came in and then back out quickly

But Lord not any quicker than according to plan

Like a soldier, one foot in front of the other

Miss Mary Ann

Had a man

Named Stan, Stan Buttler

He had no antlers

He had no center

He had no enter and he had no exit

His hair was short and prickly

He came in and then back out quickly

But Lord not any quicker than according to plan

Like a soldier, one foot in front of the other

And how he loved her apple pies

How he loved her meat loaf

How he loved her chicken breasts

How he loved her pudding

Served promptly at eight o'clock

Served promptly at seven

Served promptly at ten o'clock

And promptly at eleven, heaven

Miss Mary Ann

Kept her cans

In alphabetical order

Miss Mary Ann

Began to have

Some thoughts of murder

Miss Mary Ann

Started to think

Real hard about her future

Miss Mary Ann

Preferred her meat

To be freshly butchered

Oh, she killed him rather quickly

Man that woman was truly sickly

But Lord not any sicker than according to plan

Like a soldier, one foot in front of the other

And how he loved her apple pies

How he loved her meat loaf

How he loved her chicken breasts

How he loved her pudding

Served promptly at eight o'clock

Served promptly at seven

Served promptly at ten o'clock

And promptly at eleven heaven

Miss Mary Ann

Kept her man

In porcupine gloves, in porcupine gloves

And on that day

As scheduled

They made porcupine love

Porcupine lo-hatsjoe
