The Mountain Goats — Going to Palestine

[Verse 1] That woman set herself on fire They said it on the radio They said she lit off the skies of Palestine I could not stand to hear them say so [Refrain] I saw the stars come out I saw the oranges on the trees [Verse 2] Later on they played some Caribbean song Man, they sure know how to pick 'em The rich voice burning like a fuse The syncopated rhythms [Refrain] I saw the stars come out I saw the oranges cracking open I saw you standing there Orange blossom in your hair Going to Palestine Going to Palestine
