The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Her doctor doctor said be bold tooth
I wanna cut you out but not 'llowed to
But it's ugly
Ain't it cruel?
Her father father's name was in their room
He's always gettin' drunk and messin' with you
Always ugly
Ain't it cruel?
Ain't it?!
Come away now
Come away now, now, now
Come away now
Come away now, now, now
Her praying mother launches cults and moans
He's aggravatin', breakin' ten dishes
Says that's ugly
Exposed tooth
You'll have to meet me there, come wrapped tight
The fool is sittin' drunk and havin' ???
Well, it's ugly
Shame for you
Come away now
Come away now, now, now
Come away now
Come away now, now, now
Wait, baby, tell us
When they're sharing naked
The child who'd wear the mask stutters
They've got the lovely voice
Wait, baby, tell us
When they're sharing naked
The child who'd wear the mask stutters
They've got the lovely eyes
Don't fall
Don't fall
Don't fall
Don't
Don't fall
Don't fall
Don't fall
Not at al
