Marsh Mellow Field Lyrics

Heard you were coming back
Been hanging around for so long
A militant mother... A militant brother
A militant marsh mellow field

Loosen the tourniquet
Long way to go for so long
An angry professor, misguided confessor
Of militant marsh mellow field

Oh won't you take me
Oh won't you take me
Oh won't you take me out of my mind

Oh won't you take me
Oh won't you take me
Oh won't you take me out of my mind

Valedictorian
Living the words for so long
I love you forever
I curse the bad weather
In militant marsh mellow fields

Its raining in storyland
Stuck in the pages so long
Attracted a loser
A practiced confuser
A militant marsh mellow field

Oh won't you take me
Oh won't you take me
Oh won't you take me out of my mind
Oh won't you take me
Oh won't you take me
Oh won't you take me out of my mind

New resolution
Forever lasting so long
Got over inflated
I no longer waited
In militant marsh mellow fields

Oh won't you take me
Oh won't you take me
Oh won't you take me out of my mind

Oh won't you take me
Oh won't you take me
Oh won't you take me out of my mind

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
