|
they descend upon the city like flies |
|
spraying their eggs into a dead dog's eyes |
|
it's England on a Saturday night |
|
I wish I could be like them and I try |
|
but I find it more rewarding to walk along the river |
|
picturing my body discarded in the water |
|
I wonder who will do it and I wonder what they're doing right now |
|
they opened up the sewers tonight |
|
animals caged in their appetites |
|
let loose upon the passer-by |
|
and people like me are just parasites |
|
take me to the river |
|
I want to feel the water |
|
closing in and helpless as you're pushing my head under |
|
I wonder if you'll do it and I wonder what you're doing right now |
|
at four am you're lying right there |
|
with urine and wine dried in your hair |
|
you mean something to someone somewhere. |
|
but now half alive, to drunk to care. |
|
I take you to the river |
|
I want to show you something |
|
I'm making a map from all the flowers I'm collecting |
|
I wonder if I'll do it and I wonder what I'm doing right now |
