| [00:00.52] |
I knelt I aimed I missed I ran |
| [00:04.01] |
Across the fIeld where our love began |
| [00:07.76] |
The ears of the corn began to melt and swim |
| [00:11.06] |
My 2020 vision 95 dim |
| [00:12.61] |
I bowed my head to the weight of the sun |
| [00:17.61] |
I saw ribs sticking out through my yellow skin |
| [00:21.53] |
I felt so tail I felt so thin |
| [00:29.02] |
And the children were singing Here he comes the killer again |
| [00:35.19] |
Here he comes the chickenkiller again |
| [00:40.57] |
I was shooting at the birds on the telephone lines |
| [00:44.85] |
Putting little black holes on the speed limit signs |
| [00:48.47] |
And tell me where she is I screamed |
| [00:51.98] |
And tell me where it Is she's been |
| [00:55.30] |
Well smiling people gathered round |
| [00:58.92] |
Wearing coloured silk under coloured lights |
| [01:02.33] |
And paper streamers floated down |
| [01:05.25] |
Like a skating rink or a boxing tight |
| [01:11.59] |
And grace descended without a sound |
| [01:17.58] |
And the children kept singing Here he comes the killer again |
| [01:25.54] |
Here he comes the chickenkiller again |
| [01:28.65] |
I ran through that crowd calling out your dear name |
| [01:32.09] |
To the blind the deaf the dumb the lame |
| [01:35.46] |
But they shook their heads and pointed to the sky |
| [01:38.70] |
Saying she's in His hands now my boy |
| [01:42.27] |
She caught death as only lovers can ever catch can |
| [01:46.91] |
And the children kept singIng Here he comes the killer again |
| [01:55.88] |
Here he comes the chickenkiller again |
| [01:57.79] |
Now the grass is brown and dry beside the track |
| [02:17.15] |
Broken beer bottle shines like our engagement ring |
| [02:22.03] |
And as sure as there's a man on the cross on a hill |
| [02:25.56] |
I'll pay dearly for everthing |
| [02:28.63] |
Now they stoop and they poke and they prod and they peer |
| [02:32.23] |
At our prone bodies lying there |
| [02:37.44] |
Like roosters picking at the body of a hen |
| [02:46.41] |
And the children were singing Here he comes the killer again |
| [02:52.13] |
Here he comes the chickenkiller again |
| [02:56.68] |
My ears were filled with that joyful ringing |
| [03:09.47] |
My ears were filled with that happy singing |
| [03:17.24] |
Laughing and pointing and pointing and singing |
| [03:27.81] |
And the children sang etc etc |
