Mr. & Mrs. Compost Lyrics - Singles - Bibio

Succulent, ready to be twisted off 

The leaves are warm and the stones are hot 

The distant houses seem to melt with the vast open glowing air 

The almost steaming ragged wood of the oak trunks and the sweating walk 

The ease of the wagging boughs 

Layering wavering shadows 

A story tells me that there is a couple there 

Buried 'neath the twisted roots 

Older than the tree itself 

Older than the ruined farm 

They lived there in the wooden days 

wWhen hands were tougher than a plough 

And will was stronger than the rafters of a house

I also heard their dog is there 

Their bones are tangled in that tree 

Side by side and holding hands and that's the reason why 

That tree is beautiful
