Crackle & Drag (original take) Lyrics
She made a good go for a weeping willow
Closed all the windows and made herself a pillow
As her limbs clung to the ground
She lay her head down
Her hair was dirty in February
She was thirty in 1963
A thousand seconds more
On the oven door
She took a long deep breath
While her babies slept
Made a good go for a weeping willow
With a cold, fixed stare
She's cursed with insight
And you can't repair
She's broken inside
She made a good go for a weeping willow
She closed the windows and made herself a pillow
And took a long deep breath
While her babies slept
And the Cadillac creeps
In your body bag
And her blacks crackle and drag
Blacks crackle and drag
Blacks crackle and drag
Blacks crackle and drag
Blacks crackle and drag
Blacks crackle and drag
Blacks crackle and drag
Closed all the windows and made herself a pillow
As her limbs clung to the ground
She lay her head down
She was thirty in 1963
A thousand seconds more
On the oven door
She took a long deep breath
While her babies slept
She's cursed with insight
And you can't repair
She's broken inside
She closed the windows and made herself a pillow
And took a long deep breath
While her babies slept
And the Cadillac creeps
In your body bag
Blacks crackle and drag
Blacks crackle and drag
Blacks crackle and drag
Blacks crackle and drag
Blacks crackle and drag
Blacks crackle and drag

its about sylvia plath .... the edge .. her final poem .... "shes cursed with insight" is perfect
can someone explain the "blacks crackle and drag" part?
wait... these lyrics are really messed up.
