Dora Goes To Town

Andrew Bird's Bowl of Fire


She's got a ham in her handbag, a pig in her purse 
She's got two-ply no-fly baby buggers 
She's got a burlap sack, she's on a voter parade 
She's gonna get some carob cigars and some lemonade 
No need to put your ear to the ground 
Dora Munch is coming to town 

She puts eggs in her orange juice, coffee in her tea 
Puts olives in her jelly, says that's the way it's gonna be 
Ashes and mashes and dust and mustard 
Creamed spinach sandwich and she cuts the crusts off 
Don't let it show that you wanted some 
Dora Munch is coming to town
