The Man With No Ankles
Owen Pallett

Somewhere between a window and my doorstepnI remembered what it was to play, to play, to playnDon't tell me you can't remembernA time before carnal needsnTurned us all into employers and employeesnnThe future is a constant in the world everywherenBut if humans aren't predestined, the future is variablenWell I don't even I don't know what it means, don't know what it meansnBut a fine figured wife isn't how I'm gonna end my teensnnI'll do, upon, upon, your beautynI'll do, d-do, d-do, my dutynI'll do, I'll do, I'll do my dutynI'll do, d-do, d-do, my dutynnI stopped by the river to fish out a fivernI couldn't stand to see my countenance therenOh, as the water hit my calves and my anklesnTo the back of my legs, to my neck, to my headnnWoo. hoo.. ahh....!nnI'll do, I'll do, I'll do, my dutynI'll do, d-do, d-do, my dutynI'll do, I'll do, I'll do, my dutynI'll do, d-do, d-do, my duty
