Lyrics

They watered down the poison in this town
They raised us wrong
They raised us strong
They raised us up with arms 10 feet long

I'm afraid we're hansel-ed
I'm afraid we're cancel and grettel-ed
I'm afraid we don't have the mettel
To make it in these woods
The empire state
Made out of ginger cake
Came crumbling down
Before we had a taste

Summer settles
Fall faints
Spring spreads
Winter waits
Dusk consents
And dawn redecorates
