作词 : Momus | |
The pupil is twelve, attractive, withdrawn | |
In a midnight blue school uniform | |
Lips just a little too full for her face | |
Distant eyes full of space | |
In her posture no trace of coquette | |
No defiance | |
She fingers the frets looking forlorn | |
Crossing her legs where her tights have been torn | |
Starts as her mother comes into the room | |
And the afternoon grows still | |
And her mother feels chill | |
Shivers and buttons her coat | |
I gently correct the curve of her back | |
And open her book in the now-empty flat | |
At the classical piece I've had her prepare | |
And her arms are bare as she plays | |
And I draw back behind her ear | |
A few strands of hair gone astray | |
She shows me her bracelet, the lesson is done | |
I turn it around between finger and thumb | |
We sit face to face and it seems to me that | |
Her face is the face of a cat | |
And touching the place where her breasts will be | |
I press my hand flat | |
She comes into my lap, I turn her around | |
Her hands clasp my neck and her feet skim the ground | |
Her skirt travels up under my palm | |
But the pupil sits looking so calm | |
As if listening to the distant sound | |
Of a burglar alarm | |
What happened next it's hard to recall | |
The guitar lesson left no traces at all | |
Now, from afar, it seems to resemble | |
A strange composition in oil | |
Of a man, a guitar, and an innocent little girl |
