The Crumbling of the Monuments

from The Shunned Country by Bob Drake

/

lyrics

The crazy lady down the road
said she heard a rumbling
from underneath the graveyard.
Then a few days later
all the monuments began to
crumble into little pieces.
No one knew why,
nobody knew what it meant.
Another few days passed
and then the whole place
started to subside...
Now there’s nothing there
but a dismal swamp emitting
venomous effluvia.
Mephitic effluvia which,
if inhaled, - the local people say -
leads directly to a condition
somehow involving liquifaction.
