Lyrics

[00:19.35] The sun was going down behind a tattoo tree
[00:26.59] And the simple act of an oar's stroke put diamonds in the
[00:31.19] Sea
[00:34.31] And all because of the phosphorus there in quantity
[00:40.30] As I dug you digging me in Mexico
[00:52.91] There in the Valley of Scorpio beneath the cross of jade
[01:00.39] Smoking on a seashell pipe the gypsies had made
[01:07.80] We sat and we dreamed awhile of smugglers bringing wine
[01:13.91] That crystal-thought time in Mexico
[01:23.28] Sitting in a chair of bamboo sipping grenadine
[01:30.82] Straining my eyes for a surfacing submarine
[01:38.46] Kingdoms of ants walk across my feet
[01:44.20] I'm a-shaking in my seat in Mexico
[01:59.69] Grasshoppers creaking in the velvet jungle night
[02:07.05] Microscopic circles in the fluid of my sight
[02:14.11] Watching a black-eyed native girl cut and trim the lamp
[02:20.57] Valentino vamp in Mexico
[02:35.61] The sun was going down behind a tattoo tree
[02:43.04] And the simple act of an oar's stroke put diamonds in the
[02:47.59] Sea
[02:50.09] And all because of the phosphorus there in quantity
[02:56.64] As I dug you digging me in Mexico
