|
I fried my head, I'm not a brunette |
|
I'm a down and dusky blonde |
|
I am living in a tree |
|
When I lie in bed I see |
|
Beyond my lover's head the moon, |
|
I hear the rain |
|
I am conscious of my voice, |
|
As a tool it's more demure |
|
Than your friend the singing queen |
|
With her matinee good looks |
|
She talks like talkng from a book |
|
I speak the language of my village, |
|
Of my street |
|
But I need a friend and I choose you |
|
I tell you the way I feel |
|
The truth is crushing like a heel |
|
I will forget the kiss and feel |
|
If you will too |
|
Tell me tales of punk-rocking girls |
|
It's a dim and distant page |
|
But I mostly blame my age |
|
Please make allowances for me |
|
I do not see |
|
It's a drag that you're getting old |
|
I love to think about the year |
|
When we sobbed and then |
|
We cheered |
|
The town deserted like a film |
|
Your torso crushing me |
|
Into the country and the tunnels |
|
And the fields |
|
But I need a friend and I choose you |
|
I tell you the way I feel |
|
The truth is crushing like a heel |
|
I will forget the kiss and feel |
|
If you will too |
|
I read a book a day, like an apple |
|
But I did not eat |
|
And so the doctor came to me |
|
He said a woman does not live |
|
By the printed word |
|
Forgive yourself and eat |
|
Autumn sped along outside |
|
Trick photography on speed |
|
I was locked inside a room |
|
They made a deal, they would control |
|
The simple things like bodies |
|
But I kept my soul |
|
When I need someone I chose you |
|
Because the fledging soul awakes |
|
And on the balcony she quakes |
|
And she is waiting for the sign |
|
And when the brother does not come |
|
Abd when the sister's much too young |
|
She chooses you |
