Old Dead Tree Lyrics

Cover art for Old Dead Tree lyrics by Defiance, Ohio

A decent answer to the Irish folk classic "Dirty Old Town": "I'm gonna make me a big sharp axe/Shining steel tempered in the fire/I'll chop you down like an old dead tree." Probably meant to be a homage to The Pogues. The bit about Slayer in the beginning seems unwelcome to me--albums aren't forms of Twitter and Slayer still sucks. Besides, aren't two homages in one song enough?
