A Murder (Live In Penn’s Woods).mp3
LYRICS
One crow, two crow
Three crow, four
Don’t really need any more
For sure…
It’s a murder
She use to love me
Now she kills me
She use to love me
No thrills… sheeeze
Sheeeee’s killin’ me
Caw, caw, caw
Left in awe
Slapped stupid
$%ck cupid!
Sheeeze…
Sheeeee’s killin’ me
Five crow, six crow,
seven crow, more
Getting hard to endure
For sure…
It’s a murder
You made the ghost happen
Now, the ghost lives on
ABOUT THE SONG
Capo 2

This song started, when a friend (hosting a show in Ardmore, Pennsylvania) asked the artists to write a song about murder for the Valentine’s month of February. So, I wrote this song as a sort-of ironic metaphor like simile about domestic violence. If you are a victim of spousal abuse, it may happen in a variety of ways. Inevitably, it will happen over time. To put it another way — If one crow shows up, what is it? How many crows need to show up, before it’s a gathering of crows? What do you call a gathering of crows?

Crows = A murder
PBS:
Crows are members of the Corvidae family, which also includes ravens, magpies, and blue jays. Loud, rambunctious, and very intelligent, crows are most often associated with a long history of fear and loathing. They are considered pests by farmers trying to protect their crops and seedlings. Many people fear them simply because of their black feathers, which are often associating them with death. But research demonstrated in A Murder of Crows proves crows are actually very social and caring creatures, and also among the smartest animals on the planet.
