about

The idea formed in the camp pantry, swimming in the birth fluid of dust dancing off of pounding drums. The concept was refined later that night by PJ and Riley.

lyrics

Am CM GM DM
V1
One way he took a walk
Awound the world to find
A rare endangered beaver’s
Big Buck teeth

V2
His gun was sharp His knives were cocked
His ears were wide, his eyes were locked
Deadliness was bleeding from
His teeth

CHORUS
Masculinity, femininity, to infinity and beyond
To the moon, the sky, a balloon to the stars
He widdled the trees and he took them apart
And now there are just dozens of his hearts
Richard Island Card
Dozens of his hearts
Richard Island Card

V3
He came unto a great big tree
His axe was sharp, fell to his knees
And now he lost the urge to hunt
Big teeth

CHORUS
Masculinity, femininity, to infinity and beyond
To the moon, the sky, a balloon to the stars
He widdled the trees and he took them apart
And now there are just dozens of his hearts
Richard Island Card
Dozens of his hearts
Richard Island Card

Bridge
AM
And Richard, the hunter
The weight of his axe,
b#m
The thick heavy grain,
The sweat down his back
c#m
His breathing was hard
He set down his pack
DM
The heave and the ho
EM
Now he’s a lumberjack

CHORUS
Masculinity, femininity, to infinity and beyond
To the moon, the sky, a balloon to the stars
He widdled the trees and he took them apart
And now there are just dozens of his hearts
Richard Island Card
Dozens of his hearts
Richard Island Card
