lyrics

Up in Massachusetts
With my tongue zip tied
Who could dare undo it?
Heaven knows I’ve tried
Making my way up top the mountain
Halfway I almost turned back down
If it weren’t for the passion of the party
Surely I’d have turned around

Bought an apple fritter
With a credit card
I thought it was delicious
Though, a little hard
I’d say it sat out for an hour
No more than one hour or two
I ate half the fritter
And then I gave the rest to you
And you just smiled like you do

Saw the necromancer
In his garden clothes
He was in the flowers
Near the indigos
I asked him, “Can you speak to Elvis?”
He told me that “The King, he was not dead”
And he spoke low, “If you’re ere to see him
Please thank him for the violets
Please thank him for the violets”
Thanking you for the violets
Thanking you for the violets
