the field of yellow grass
you stood on a field with yellow grass, Fes
but now that is not known, no?
for i don't think any man in his right mind could say
they ever saw grass that was yellow
not even Fes
i hung beside you
had on a coat of flies
you spoke to me
you said stop moving to me
but i was not moving,
it was the flies that were, you see
stop dispersing
away, you tiny fiends!
you shook me you shook me
you said stop speaking to me
but i was not speaking,
tying my shoes in haste,
we'll be late for the gathering!
you were
tying my shoes, tying my shoes,
by the tree in front of no gathered crowd
in the middle of the broken sea
wailing in confined plea
by an old weeping willow tree
you were attempting to revive a corpse
while a mariachi band made of flies that called themselves The Dolóres sang,
como es, como es,
por que Llama loco Fes
or maybe in your ears they rang
in the lot with yellow grass,
like a bygone sea with dried up sand
called the field of no man's land
hung the fiend by your own hand
