10,000 Maniacs Katrina's Fair Lyrics

Greta's cedar hope chest
Is full of pamphlets
Glass shelves of romantic vignettes
A journal laced with sedimentary prose
Norma gathers and collects vintage photoplays
Hair combs, valentines
Lillian allows the animals to scratch
And the leather crack
And the mail collect in the box who's coating's peeled
Agnes veiled cathedral dweller smiles
With benevolent pain

Well it's Katrina's fair
Tuesday morning
As she with caution unlatches the flat door
She alone cascades to the basement
Careful not to spoil her calico printed pinafore
Composite traits mannerists
All others dissipate

Margauritte vigilant, she dwells upon frigid casements
And Sara's thoughts in high velocity
Accusations always pierce and pass
Clara abandons her passions for distaste
And Miss Lenora P. Sinclair
Early for coffee in the pool
"I'm resituating all your words"
Capital s___e Colon and Paragraph

But it's Katrina's fair
Tuesday morning
As she with caution unlatches the flat door
She alone cascades to the basement
Careful not to spoil her calico printed pinafore
Composite traits mannerists
All others dissipate

Sylvia's kept beasts in jars labeled
Kingdom phylum class order family genus species

But it's Katrina's fair
Tuesday morning
As she with caution unlatches the flat door
She alone cascades to the basement
Careful not to spoil her calico printed pinafore
Composite traits mannerists
All others dissipate

Down the waist, a silk design
His fate is mine
Desire, Katrina
Katrina I'm...
