Fiona Apple - Werewolf

From the album The Idler Wheel… (2012)

Werewolf and Every Single Night (posted here) are my favorite tracks from Fiona’s latest album. Not coincidentally, Werewolf is the most poppy and straightforward song on The Idler Wheel. It has a catchy chorus.

The song has some nice lyrical tricks and imagery: 

The lava of a volcano
Shot up hot from under the sea
One thing leads to another
And you made an island of me.

We’re like a wishing well
And a bolt of electricity.

Nothin’ wrong when
a song ends
in a minor key.
