Bilingual
Papa died smiling
Wide as the ring of a bell
ย
Gone all star white
Small as a wish in a well
ย
And Sodom, South Georgia
Woke like a tree full of bees
ย
Buried in Christmas
Bows and a blanket of weeds
Papa died Sunday, and I understood
ย
All dead white boys say God is good
White tongues hang out, God is good
ย
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Papa died while my girl
Lady Edith was born
ย
Both heads fell like eyes
On a crack in the door
ย
And Sodom, South Georgia
Slept on an acre of bones
ย
Slept through Christmas
Slept like a bucket of snow
ย
Papa died Sunday, and I understood
ย
All dead white boys say God is good
White tongues hang out, God is good
ย
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
ย
Ah-ah-ah-ah
