Fire Engine

Aoife O’Donovan

Fanfare of the firefly
Didn't come as much of a surprise to you
Nothing buzzing, you know it all
You know everything, do I know you?
Am I gonna get my light from there?

Put a little oil in my lamp
Try to keep it burning, I try to keep a man
It's all in vain, it's all for naught
Your name is blue ink across my hand
Am I gonna get my love from there?

Look down on the ground
Put my pebbles in a mound
Gotta dig a little deeper
To hide these jewels that I found
Among the fossils in the fables
Told to me by my neighbor
Three blocks down
When we were able to make a sound

The sound of the fire engine
The sight of you pouring the gin
I can hear the axe, I can hear the lines
I can taste it on your lips every time
Am I gonna get my water now?

This river is running dry
It's a rocky road, it's a little white lie
'Cause you blew false to me
??? tonight

I get down on the ground
With my pebbles in a mound
Gotta dig a little deeper
To hide these jewels that I found
Among the fossils in the fables
Told to me by my neighbor
Three blocks down
When we were able to make a sound

Look around
Put your pebbles in a mound
Gotta dig a little deeper
To find the jewels from a crown
Mm you're around ??
What's that sound?
It's just a shovel breaking ground
