Lament |
| I’ve seen your fairground hair, |
| your seaside eyes |
| Your vampire tooth, your little truth |
| Your tiny lies |
| I know your trembling hand, your guilty prize |
| Your sleeping limbs, your foreign hymns |
| Your midnight cries |
| So dry your eyes |
| And turn your head away |
| Now there’s nothing more to say |
| Now you’re gone away |
| I know your trail of tears, your slip of hand |
| Your monkey paw, your monkey claw |
| And your monkey hand |
| I’ve seen your trick of blood, your trap of fire |
| Your ancient wound, your scarlet moon |
| And your jailhouse smile |
| So dry your eyes |
| And turn your head away |
| Now there’s nothing more to say |
| Now you’re gone away |
| I’ll miss your urchin smile, your orphan tears |
| Your shining prize, your tiny cries |
| Your little fears |
| I’ll miss your fairground hair, your seaside eyes |
| Your little truth, your vampire tooth, |
| And your tiny lies |
| So dry your eyes |
| And turn your head away |
| Now there’s nothing more to say |
| Now you’re gone away |
