Thou Shalt Sprout - mary in the junkyard

Lyrics by:Clari Freeman-Taylor

Composed by:Clari Freeman-Taylor/Saya Barbaglia/David Addison

You laid out a banquet

Of fruit you had stolen

We laughed as we ate it

And we didn't care

I had been so hungry

I was satiated

But the men from the market

They knocked on my door

They said if you came back

Back to the market

They'd grab you and catch you

And cut off your hands

That night you had bad dreams

That you couldn't play the piano

With no hands to play it with

Taken by those men

The next day I was hungry

About to have our baby

You said for our daughter

You'd go back there

I told you to stay away

Away from the market

Instead go to the field

And get food there

But the farmer he saw you

And he took out his shovel

And buried you in the dirt

Buried you down there

I went to that spot

And I saw it sprouting

With plants that could feed me

Fruit they would bear

Your heart was a beetroot

And your head was a lemon tree

Your arms were an olive branch

Your hair became corn

You fed me forever

Our daughter grew big and strong

I told her the story

Of her father's care
