what will they do with a maddened writer?

what will they do with a maddened writer?

what will they do with a maddened writer?


early in the morning


way hay and up she rises

way hay and up she rises

way hay and up she rises


early in the morning


cuts her wrists with a rusty razor

cuts her wrists with a rusty razor

cuts her wrists with a rusty razor


early in the morning


way hay and up she rises

way hay and up she rises

way hay and up she rises


early in the morning


put her in the 'sylum till she's sober

put her in the 'sylum till she's sober

put her in the 'sylum till she's sober


early in the morning


way hay and up she rises

way hay and up she rises

way hay and up she rises


early in the morning


stick her in the room with the padded walls

stick her in the room with the padded walls

stick her in the room with the padded walls


early in the morning


way hay and up she rises

way hay and up she rises

way hay and up she rises


early in the morning


put her in a bed with her limbs strapped down

put her in a bed with her limbs strapped down

put her in a bed with her limbs strapped down


early in the morning


way hay and up she rises

way hay and up she rises

way hay and up she rises


early in the morning


that's what they do with the maddened writer

that's what they do with the maddened writer

that's what they do with the maddened writer


early in the morning!
