Old man's ass
Fifty heads wide
Old man's ass
Could stretch a battle ship,
Side to side to side to side to side to side to side to side
Are we all wrapped up, wrapped up together
Are we all wrapped up, fit for the kill
Are we all wrapped up, stacked up together
Stretch my neck to look up to him
Are we all wrapped up, wrapped up together
Are we all wrapped up- fit for the kill
Are we all wrapped up, stacked up together
Fit for the kill
There's a flower thief in my back yard again,
I'll grin my teeth to make him stay,
Trap him in my flower bed and then
I'll feed him with my paraffin.
Feed him with my paraffin.
Stretch my neck to look up to him.
Are we all wrapped up, wrapped up together
Are we all wrapped up, fit for the kill
Are we all wrapped up, stacked up together
Stretch my neck to look up to him
Are we all wrapped up, wrapped up together
Are we all wrapped up, fit for the kill
Are we all wrapped up, stacked up together
Stretch my neck to look up to him.
Old man got me in the eye again
Stretch my neck to look up to him.
Stuck his bony finger in.
Stretch my neck to look up to him.
Turned me round and did it all again.
Stretch my neck to look up to him.
Now I smell like paraffin X8
Are we all wrapped up, wrapped up together
Now I smell like paraffin X7 / Are we all wrapped up, wrapped up together
Now I smell like paraffin X4
Love her voice. This is an awesome song.
It is awesome. Aside from the old man's ass part, i think its pretty straight forward. I feel it has something to do with trying to have this guy ...and feed him paraffin (wax)? doing so, she begins to smell like it. well, i think it really depends on what she means by paraffin and its significance. I doubt she means it literally. it probably is symbolic/an analogy for something else. It may have to do with paraffin being something that is burned. Paraffin is also used in cooking, and also is used as a laxative. if it is the latter, ide say Ruby is quite the potty mouth.
I think the paraffin part is even more »risqué» than your interpretation: I read it as she, literally or not, let him taste her (and taste should not be read as "kiss").

I also think she is not completely satisfied with her partners performance:

If this isn't a song about sodomy, I don't know what is.
@Slothrop77 YEah. She herself said that "paraffin" means cunt juice, but that I think is a red herring. There's a plethora of references to anal sex in her songs (main example "Roses" - also veiled references in "Salt Water Fish", "Hoops", "Pine" and - that "butter over me" song whatrever it's called). So how could we not think that "got me in the eye" means "in the brown eye" ?

I think that this song is much more imaginative that just talking about sex. .. an ass is not only a bottom but also a donkey. This animal was use in the past to stretch boats aside channels. . This would better fit with this song? For the rest of the lyrics this makes me think about this horror movie with a psycho who fills the victim bodies with parafin to conserve them. In the song the psycho is also killed as he smells like parafin too at the end !
