lyrics

She came out of the water
she had been bad
She came out of the water
she had been bad
No one remembered
but everyone agreed
she had done something bad
Father threw her off the boat
into the sea
she had been bad
Couldn't face the dirt under her fingernails
she had slept with the dark

The fish ate away all of her flesh and skin
she's only bones
they call her ugly
A broken heart for dinner
an ugly duckling in winter
come embrace me with your body of bones
come embrace me with your body of bones

What must die, die
What must live, live
will you sleep next to me
while I sleep
Skeleton Woman
do visit me in my dreams
you know I'll be afraid
but you know I'll always look you in the face

She came out of the water
she had been bad
She came out of the water
she had been bad

They call her ugly
They call her scary
come embrace me with your body of bones
They call her a witch
They call her a bitch
come embrace me with your body of bones
come embrace me with your body of bones

Austro-British singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, artist and yarn-spinner, whose imaginative forays into dark folk tales, humour-laden
