The Residents
Death Harvest
[Peter Whitehead]
Tragedy seems to follow the Winsor family.
Once an elder brother died while pigeon hunting
Then the younger brother was shot with his own gun.
Also the three year old daughter of the Winsors
Came too close to a campfire and burst into flames.
A mother and four children were spirited away
From pleasures of a picnic day
Into eternity
The day was to include a strawberry picking expedition
And a picnic dinner, too.
[The Singing Resident]
Rushing like a banshee
Gliding down the tracks
Rushing like a banshee
Gliding down the tracks
[Unknown female singer]
Rushing like a banshee
Rushing like a banshee
Rushing like a banshee
[The Singing Resident]
Rushing like a banshee, ready to attack
The swiftly moving engine collided with a CRACK
of thunder as the Buick crossed the railroad tracks,
Spreading human freight along the railway grade
Leaving fresh strawberries scattered in its wake.
[Peter Whitehead]
William Winsor suffered a fractured skull and hip,
A broken kneecap and a lacerated lip.
When found by Roland Butler who handled him with care
His head was in the ground and his feet were in the air.
