'Lumberjack' Acoustic Performance

Here's an acoustic performance of 'Lumberjack', from my upcoming album These Octagonal Eyes. Lyrics are below!

Where’s my Swedish fiddle?

I’m going out to clear the woods

Searching high or low there

I’ll use the best to make my goods


The logger needs his dinner


Sharpening my axe

I take ‘em down to size

‘Cause I’m the lumberjack

I’m clearing out the skies


Boss told me to go down

And salvage the cold deck

“Watch for widowmakers

They’ll grab you right by the neck”


The skidroad needs a trimmer

It wasn’t touched all winter


Sharpening my axe

I take ‘em down to size

‘Cause I’m the lumberjack

I’m clearing out the skies

Sharpening my axe

I take ‘em down to size

‘Cause I’m the lumberjack

I’m clearing out the skies


Mayday, don’t look now

But there’s a fire in the crown

Make way for the bateau

We must evacuate the town

We must evacuate the town


Sharpening my axe

I take ‘em down to size

‘Cause I’m the lumberjack

I’m clearing out the skies

Sharpening my axe

I take ‘em down to size

‘Cause I’m the lumberjack

I’m clearing out the skies
