Original text with translation

The Giant Of Illinois

Andrew Bird

The giant of Illinois

Died of a blister on its toe

After walking all day through the first winter’s snow

Throwing bits of stale bread

To the last speck of dawn

He never even felt his shoe fill with blood

Delirious with pain

His bedroom walls began to glow

And he felt himself floating up to falling snow

And the sky was a woman’s arms

And the sky was a woman’s arms

A boy and dog with a clubbed foot

Sat next to him on his tomb

Once upon a summer’s day they were walking through the woods

They spotted a sleeping swan

On the beds of a muddy stream

They stoned it with rocks till it collapsed in the reeds

They laid out on the grass

Full with chocolate and lemonade

And underneath it all the giant was afraid

And the sky was a woman’s arms — Oh, the sky was a woman’s arms

And the sky was a woman’s arms
