The Amphibian |
On to the next dream we run |
But still I feel like I’ve been stung |
With all the phrases I’ve been sung |
All the puppets I’ve hung among |
I can’t forget their stupid eyes |
Their vague attempts to patronize |
The very nonsense I despise |
While sizing up their pig sty’s prize |
Amphibian baby, I hardly know your name |
But ever since you came in me |
I haven’t been the same |
You’ve got your certain method |
Time is up your sleeve |
Old age crawls inside your bod |
And waits for me to leave |
I must have left my keys somewhere |
I must have left my drink somewhere |
I must have left my drugs somewhere |
I must have left my clothes somewhere |
I must have left my flesh somewhere |
I must have left my bones somewhere |
I must have left my soul somewhere |
Don’t bother to count, the money’s all there |
Amphibian baby, I’ve dealt with you before |
Your gills and pills won’t pay my bills |
I’m showing you the door |
The rain is beating harder |
The fabric that we weave |
Blow my cover of a grotesque fish |
And waits for me to leave |
I need some words, I just made this up, I can’t be sure… |
It’s me in that picture… |
There I was, out here… |
Wrote me a letter, so many letters… |
It all seems so long ago… |
