lyrics

hey look, whats that i see?
little antlers, pointing out of the trees
the wind is pushing me towards
im far from home, and the police sirens have spoken their dark words

and who might you be?
wandering through my fathers trees
if he saw us here
he would put us both to his crooked spears

this is something from a static tv
but if were both doomed, ill ask will you join me?
cause you know if they find us here
they will put me back in bed and you to the iron spear

people will ask, where did you go?
did your crying mother set you lose?
ill tell them all it was a false show
and this is how i startled a moose

this is how i startled a moose
