Furr
Blitzen Trapper

Yeah, when I was only seventeennI could hear the angels whisperingnSo I drove into the woodsnAnd wandered aimlessly about nUntil I heard my mother shouting through the fognIt turned out to be the howling of a dognOr a wolf, to be exactnThe sound sent shivers down my backnBut I was drawn into the pack and before longnThey allowed me to join in and sing their songnSo from the cliffs and highest hillsnYeah, we would gladly get our fillnHowling endlessly and shrilly at the dawnnAnd I lost the taste for judging right from wrongnFor my flesh had turned to furnYeah, and my thoughts they surely werenTurned to instinct and obedience to GodnnYou can wear your furnLike a river on firenBut you'd better be surenIf you're making God a liarnI'm a rattlesnake, babe,nI'm like fuel on firenSo if you're gonna get madenDon't be afraid of what you've learnednnOn the day that I turned 23nI was curled up underneath a dogwood treenWhen suddenly a girlnHer skin the color of a pearlnShe wandered aimlessly, but she didn't seem to seenShe was listening for the angels just like menSo I stood and looked aboutnI brushed the leaves off of my snoutnAnd then I heard my mother shouting through the treesnYou should have seen that girl go shaky at the kneesnSo I took her by the armnWe settled down upon a farmnAnd raised our children up as gently as you pleasennAnd now my fur has turned to skinnAnd I've been quickly ushered innTo a world that, I confess, I do not knownBut I still dream of running careless through the snownThrough the howling winds that blownAcross the ancient distant flownTo fill our bodies up like water till we knownnYou can wear your furnLike a river on firenBut you'd better be surenIf you're making God a liarnI'm a rattlesnake, babe,nI'm like fuel on firenSo if you're gonna get madenDon't be afraid of what you've learned
