Cover art for Jezebel lyrics by Iron & Wine

ok so hes making a refrence to jezebel from the bible and some people here no the ins and outs of that real well, but why? why on a ep called Woman King and with a melody so miraculously heart wrenching and illuminating would he turn his whimsical little thoughts to that particular story... its not rocket science... and you know what, even if it was itd be worth it! im just playing:) i dont think anything matters about the content of this song. it instills in me such a deep respect and admiration for women in general and the consistantly repressed and persecuted devine femininity in us all. its funny cause it triggers in me an archaeic desire to protect woman (from oppresivive male reigemes) yet its proberbly that instinct that leads to the very oppression it would defend against.
