Lucy-on-All-Fours

Tonight I'm with a-Lucy-on-all-fours,
We go and wander through the dancing jaws,
The day it comes chasing us,
You can hear it in the rattle of the trucks.
And I come home with a shaky knee,
I can't remember where I hid that key,
The power's gone, plants are dead,
The cat has spilt a pigeon on the unmade bed,
And the changes, are only in your head.
And I consult with the changing guards,
She often wears a ribbon and it makes me hard,
Take it off, make it dark,
Make me see.
She don't love nobody but me,
She don't love nobody but me,
Fingers numb, mind at sea,
She don't love nobody but me.
Tonight I'm with a-Lucy-on-all-fours,
She kiss me like a saint, and then she fucks me like a whore,
Trailing hats to the sea,
She's gonna make a hunter out of me.
She makes hexes from my broken hair,
Causes fine gentlemen to stare,
Pulls a morsel from a feast,
Saves a little wing from the doctor's teath,
And she rises only in the east.
And I could make like I just don't care,
My lover is a fang and she bleeds me bare,
We will all reach the grave,
Gently.
She don't love nobody but me,
She don't love nobody but me,
Fingers numb, mind at sea,
She don't love nobody but me.
And like a vapour,
It's only temporary.
Tonight I'm with a-Lucy-on-all-fours,
She is pushing rabbits through the fairy doors,
Making eyes that can't be met,
We go swimming like the fishes in my cool old bed,
Until all my enemies are dead.
And then she whispers that the day is come,
Push with a paddle as the two goes one,
We have all seen the best,
Of the beast.
She don't love nobody but me,
She don't love nobody but me,
Fingers numb, mind at sea,
She don't love nobody but me.
