The second track from 2005’s SINGERS. It revisits Little Wings’s “Uh-Oh (It’s Morningtime Again)” from his Light Green Leaves album.
In the LP’s sleeve notes Phil narrates how the song came to be:
Recorded May 23rd 2002 from 8 to 10 in the evening at Dub Narcotic in Olympia Wash. Story: March 15th...
Another of my friends has died
Uh oh, it's mourning time again
The lover that I held up high
Uh oh, it's mourning time again
I held her high and made her blurry
Pressure piled on, hurry hurry
Open wide and let me settle in
Uh oh, it's mourning time again
The lava rocks, the blood, it clots
Uh oh, it's mourning time again
The moonlight lights what had been high
Uh oh, it's mourning time again
I breathe and breathe and blow your hair
I gently tug your underwear
I take my light to your cave and go in
Uh oh, it's mourning time again
I'm looking for the corpse at night
Uh oh, it's mourning time again
Cavern walls in lantern light
Uh oh, it's mourning time again
While looking for my lady love
I recollect with the graves we dug
Turning round I saw I'd been walled in
Oh! Uh oh, it's mourning time again
Uh oh, it's mourning time
Uh oh, it's mourning time
Uh oh, it's mourning time again
So if she's dead then I'm dead too
Uh oh, it's mourning time again
And that dying's just a loop-de-loo
Uh oh, it's mourning time again
I huff and puff, I'm breathy breezy
Sometimes boiling, sometimes freezing
I will be a dead body again
Uh oh, it's mourning time again
Uh oh, it's mourning time
Uh oh, it's mourning time
Uh oh, it's mourning time again
