Testo Fish - The Scaffold
Testo della canzone Fish (The Scaffold), tratta dall'album Fresh Liver (Expanded Edition)
You always were a strange girl now weren't you?
Like the midsummer night's party we went to
Where, towards witching, being tired and hot of dancing
We slipped through the French windows and arm in arm across the lawn
Pausing at the artificial pond
Lying liquid black and limpid in the strict tempo air we kissed
When suddenly you began to tremble
And removing one lavender satin glove
Knelt and slipped your hand into the slimy mirror
Your face was sad as you brought forth
A switching, twitching silver fish
Which you lay at my feet
And as the quick tick of the grass gave way to the slow flop of death
Still kneeling you said softly
"Don't die little fish"
Then you took off your other glove
And we lay sadly and we made love
As the dancers danced slowly
The fish stirred coldly
And the moon admired its reflection
In the lily petaled pond
