Lyrics Joanna Newsom - Inflammatory Writ Click to view  
Oh, where is your inflammatory writ?
Your text that would incite a light; 'be lit'
  Our music deserving
Devotion unswerving
Cried; 'do i deserve her?'
With unflagging fervor
Well, no we do not, if we cannot get over it
But what's it mean when suddenly we're spent? - tell me true
Ambition came and reared its head and went - far from you
  Even mollusks have weddings
Though solemn and leaden
But you dirge for the dead
And take no jam on your bread
Just a supper of salt and a waltz through your empty bed
And all at once
It came to me
And i wrote in hunch 'til four-thirty
But that vestal light
It burns out with the night
  In spite of all the time that we spend on it
Om one bedraggled ghost of a sonnet
While outside the wild boars root
Without bending a bough underfoot
Oh, it breaks my heart - i don't know how they do it
So don't ask me!  And as for my inflammatory writ?
Well i wrote it and i was not inflamed one bit
Advice from the master
Derailed that disaster
Said; 'hand that pen over to me, poetaster!'
While across the great plains
Keening lovely & awful
Ululate the last great american novels
An unlawful lot left, to stutter and freeze floodlit
But at least they didn't run, to their undying credit
