A strange phrase heard in the song Shapeshift by Horse The Band, an awesome metal group. In the song, the protagonist is asked by his girlfriend to "sing the cripple song" with her, which scares him off. Therefore, Cripple Song probably refers to marriage, sex,or a long term relationship, which the protagonist wants no part of. So he leaves her. In this sense, singing the cripple song, in real life, can refer to any task which one would rather avoid, such as working, paying bills, or visiting in-laws.
You should have seen her, at one with the Gods.
She said "let's sing the Cripple Song".
Then i was gone.
Oh dear, oh dear. Then i was gone.
She said " let's sing the Cripple Song together".
Then i was gone.
She said "let's sing the Cripple Song".
Then i was gone.
Oh dear, oh dear. Then i was gone.
She said " let's sing the Cripple Song together".
Then i was gone.
