Xylophone Track Lyrics - The Magnetic Fields

To my dear, dear mother 

I leave my only shoes 

To my dear, dear mother 

I leave my only shoes 

By the time you read this 

I will have died of the blues 

Scream little choo-choo 

Bang your xylophone track 

Scream little choo-choo 

Bang your xylophone track 

You can wail all night long 

But you can't bring her back 

I've done so much crying 

The flesh has left my bones 

I've done so much crying 

The flesh has left my bones 

I can play my ribcage 

Like a xylophone
