The Whistling Song Lyrics
It's the silver in the park
It's the broken, faded bird
You've learned to call your heart
Just as plain as you or me
I can't throw the lock back
And I don't have the key
just above the door
It whistles while it hangs there
Feathers dripping from every pore
They show the spectacle of falling
And settle to the floor
They show the spectacle of falling
And settle to the floor
the 3rd verse is about a bad smell with magical properties
I bought the Vinyl LP of MPll back in 1995. This was the closing song on side two of A psychedelic masterpiece . I listened to MPll over and over and over again. It never gets tired and it never gets old. "Up On The Sun" is just as timeless. songmeanings did not list "Magic Toy Missing" from MPll on this list , but that instrumental is of great importance, it is the second song after the opener "Split Mice Elf In Two".
@wooden1164 I meant to write 1985, NOT 1995 ! I met the Meat Puppets in 1985, in Dover NJ. I gave Curt a Tee shirt that I painted of a puppet on a meat hook! Then I was at CVS in Madison NJ a couple of months later looking at a SPIN magazine. And there was a photo of the Meat Puppets! And there was Curt Kirkwood wearing the shirt!
