This Girl, Black Girl |
They’ll always tell you that nothing is the worst |
That this hunger that you’re feeling |
Can be passed off as thirst |
Then they’ll turn and tell you not to leave the hearse |
And these lilies of the air are just your family curse |
This girl, that girl she counts the hours |
This girl, black girl she wears flowers |
The ship comes through the harbour |
The sails wear the sun |
The captain nodded slowly and assembled everyone |
The matron clears her throat to sing |
The doctor takes a drink |
Down below the convicts fall |
Because skeletons don’t think |
This girl, that girl she counts the hours |
This girl, black girl she wears flowers |
