Okkervil River
Blackest Coat
Wrap your blackest coat around your throat
Tonight
There's a brand-new tune around the moon
Tonight
And your mother's standing in the cellar
You didn't tell her
And your father's standing by the water
Without his daughter
'Cause there is something near that you can hear
Tonight
Feel a brand-new storm surround your form
Tonight
As the dress you wore is falling to the ground
Take the brightest scream out of your dream
Tonight
There's a brand-new sweet forbidden treat
Tonight
As your mother's standing in the cellar
You didn't tell her
As your father's standing by the water
Without his daughter
Wrap your blackest coat up round your throat
Tonight
And there's a brand-new tune around the moon
Tonight
And there's some brand-new proof that you're aloof
Tonight
And there's a brand-new song for you to sing
Sing along tonight
