lyrics

Losing track of time now
Ticking in a bomb shelter
Master belter
A brotherhood strong as stone
Chewing a bone your moans
Coming from a place beyonder

Tasted wine and bread spread
Made my bed
Talking to a crowded room
Clenching a fist to the moon
The Earth in gelatin
Take pins, stick them in my doll

I stare at the veins of a long tall short
The roots of a mountain in the ocean floor
The eyes of a mantis come knock at the door
The lemonade baking in the sun hot cold

Looking up ahead
Looking at a star cluster
Call me buster, a mantis comatose
Out of the moat don’t boast
Going to the land of wonder
Beyonder

Some swear by the magic of a lotion on
The skin and spittle got a stain on the dome
The farcical come to unload on the lawn
A mantis eating hummingbirds to the bone
