The Lizard Lady |
| What’s a woman going to do but throw away her bread |
| Her feet are feeling funny as she lies beneath the bed |
| She reminisces of the pungent Adriatic Sea |
| And then she crawls and counts her cans and twitches like a flea |
| What she really likes to do is sit upon a pew |
| And make believe that time has stopped and motionless is new |
| Planes are stranded in the sky and drains are stopping, too |
| She alone is laughing under eyelids full of flu |
| She scurries, hurries, worries that the wicked will receive |
| Their candy from a handsome man and coffee from a thief |
| She gazes at a hourglass and asks it if it cares |
| And then she wonders if the lizard likes his lettuce rare |
| «Lizard, yes a lizard, little lizard of the sea |
| Conspicuously alcoholic, flicks his tongue at me |
| Release me, release me lizard, blizzard of the bee |
| Mushed inside a sock you still dare me to die |
| Dare me to die at home |
| Coating all my lungs with honey, sticky coating running runny |
| Feet of lizard fly and stop and fly and stop and fly |
| And flicker tongue is licking out to find me, feel me, hide! |
| Hide from the tongue |
| The tongue is coming! |
| Cruising! |
| Oozing! |
| Over land and under ashes, in the sunlight, see it flashes |
| Find a fly and eat his eye, but don’t believe in me |
| Don’t believe in me, don’t believe in me |
| Don’t believe in me, don’t believe in me |
| Don’t believe in me…» |
