This song is about his role in the execution of Colonel William Crawford

lyrics

Girty Giggled
Tethered to an arbor
pummeled by fist and club
ears amputated by barbarous blows
blackpowder musket burns
sub epidermal flames
Silent no screams
veil of of maroon and soot
flaming cudgel pressed to flesh
beseeched to kill
and Girty only giggled
