How the Leopard Got Its Spots |
Palms are fitted black and finely tuned |
To triggers, cause bodies that tremble |
But this mud looks shallow from the beach |
When we hide behind such ugly faces |
And the dark-eyed woman lifts her head |
«Why do we hide behind such ugly faces?» |
Child-bearing games from the streets down to the shores |
They’re playing as waterways open in an obscene gaping gasp |
But this mud looks shallow from the beach |
When we hide behind such ugly faces |
And the dark-eyed woman lifts her head |
«Why do we hide behind such ugly faces?» |
«Rally all your men there is work to be done» |
Still, we don’t have the time for speaking out of place |
Because he won’t come down |
(He won’t come down) |
He won’t come down |
(He won’t come down) |
When lengths of snakes match each silent syllable |
«With eyes like these» |
Face glistening with suspense of a scalpel blade |
Clockwork calculating surgical precision |
But this mud looks shallow from the beach |
When we hide behind such ugly faces |
And the dark-eyed woman lifts her head |
«Why do we hide behind such ugly faces?» |
«Rally all your men there is work to be done» |
Still, we don’t have the time for speaking out of place |
He won’t come down |
(He won’t come down) |
He won’t come down |
(He won’t come down) |
He won’t come down |
(He won’t come down) |
He won’t come down |
(He won’t come down) |
La, la, la da da |
La, la, la da da |
La, la, la da da |
La, la, la da da |
La, la, la da da |
La, la, la da da |
La, la, la da da |
Palms are fitted black and finely tuned |
To stomachs, swallowed whole that bayou |
But this mud looks shallow from the beach |
When we hide behind such ugly faces |
And the dark-eyed woman lifts her head |
«Why do we hide behind such ugly faces?» |
