I knew a woman once
Giving birth to kittens and mice
And as you know, with there eating habits,
Those poor mice had to die
So the kittens were born
Full of there brothers and sisters
And they were punished swiftly
Though they did not know why
They thought they were food
They did not know what they'd done
And I was a person once
Sending off unread letters
Reveiving no reply
Never bothering asking why
I had a heart once
Full of fire and passion
But the summer took it away from me
And autumn has come to retrieve it
And I was a man once
When I was six years old
But now I am just a boy
Pretentious, and brash, and bold
The kittens were murdered
Thrown into burlap sacks
And weighted down with rocks
In a river, deep and black
And they went to heaven
They went to heaven
