murphys song

I cry at her bowl, dog's dying day

A bone in her bowl, a watery graveSee, I am a sailor, but I'm not so great

I keep fishin' for roadkill, passin' out on the wavesShimmering sea, stretched end to end

Shivering bowl, a flickering friendSee, that's Mr. Murphy, my leathery brave

He's whimpering "Taps" now, for his plank-walk gradeI've never been a joiner, no, I've quit every team I've been onNow I'm crying in my coffee, that's not sea salt in my eyes

'Cause me and Murphy, we have been through it, and I hate watching him dieSo I wait for my wisdom, like I wait for my wife

Like I wait for a story, helps me wait out the nightLike when I was an archer, but I couldn't shoot straight

I broke all of ma's windows, I poked holes through her drapesAnd I laugh to myself, but I can't tell you why

The hung-over sun, sneaks back in the skyBut Murphy went peaceful, he went decent and right

At least better than I will, when it's my turn to dieAnd I wear his collar on my wrist

And I bury him down at the beachNo crying, no coffin, just a body and a hole

No praying, no singing, no saving any soulsThe only thing I'm saving, yeah

Is a bone inside a bowl
