annie has them tombstone teeth and a stare so warm it could melt the snow skin as dark as the river bed hair pulled back tight like a violin bow she loves the sound of rain cause she says it makes her feel just like a child she goes out walking in her sleep every night the wind starts blowing wild then round and round my bed it goes shes dancing with the tornado again she digs the rhythm she digs the feel of all that debris frying round spinning in a nightmare slumber till she falls back down to the ground i bought her twine and a knitting needle i bought her soft white teddy bear but none of that made any difference well really how can it compare then you want to hear that sound when my bed is spinning round you wanna hear that sound when my bed is spinning round and round she hits the ground when though by night she may seem peculiar when you would not know it by the day she keeps to herself at the town meetings with never a bad word to say so when last month she gave me a daughter you bet it took me by surprise there must be something in the water cause she got that same strange look in her eyes now round and round my bed it goes where shes going we all know shes dancing with the tornado again then you wanna hear that sound as my bed is spinning round you wanna hear that sound as my bed is spinning round and round she hits the ground she hits the ground she hits the ground she hits the ground
