Give it to me, please
I said to god.
It's only fair.
Instead, he sent three angels
To move the river,
So now it flows by my house,
So now it goes by my house.
Angel
Angel
I'd still rather have the man.
I've had bad dreams,
So bad I threw my pillow away.
Move the river,
So now it flows by my house,
So now it goes by my house.
Angel
Angel
I'd still rather have the man.

    Huh. I always heard the opening lyric as "Bring him to me..." Which makes "I'd still rather have the man" make more sense.

    Regardless, Tanya's use of repetition in this one really makes me think of some old Sumerian poems I've read.
