Lyrics Your Head Here - Robyn Hitchcock, The Venus 3

Your Head Here

Everyone you said that you’d
Never ever turn into
Leave behind or shed the truth
Belief in what you have to do
It’s so hollow bone
Settle where the compass points
In the belly, in the joints
The president of meat anoints
He’s sorry if I disappoint you
Oh, to be a stone
I walk a thousand miles to be alone
Everyone you care about
Say you’d never do without
Walk away, forsake or doubt
See them fade and flicker out
Faces on the phone
Everything that you rely on
Tentacles of blood and (lion?)
Realize that you want to cry on
Promises that you get by on
Life is all I own
You walk a thousand miles of your alone
Ring my chimes, I’m a ding-dong daddy
Step right up and see
It’s your head here x 6
Everywhere you think you stand
Leave your shadow in the sand
Love’s the blossom in your hand
Die amongst the ghostly (pan'd?)
Into the phantom zone
Boys with meat inside their heads
Appetites that get it spread
All across the lily bed
The lily pad is turning red
I love the way you drone
I walk a thousand miles and I’m alone
Ring my chimes, I’m a ding-dong daddy
Yessirree it’s true
It’s your head here (to out)
