doggerel bank - sarcophagus blue lyrics

Loading...

a prehistoric monster’s at the bottom of the garden
and he’s shaking all the apple blossom down
mother, his skin’s all rags and tatters
like a split and sodden mattress
and he’s tearing at it, throwing bits around

go away, lazarus
why did you roll away the stone?
sarcophagus blue

he’s slashing at the pansies and your gladiolas
and he’s smashing all your lovely flowerpots
mother, as he staggers through the roses
he waves his bandaged hands
and he’s spitting out forget+me+nots

go away, lazarus
i want my cosy catacomb
sarcophagus blue

he’s breaking up the sundial with the poem written on it
the weeping willow’s torn out by the roots
mother, he’s thrown the gnomes and pixies in the lilypond
with bricks, he’s beating at the arum lily shoots

go away, lazarus
that was a place to call my own
sarcophagus blue
he drags his horrid body through the rockery
oh hurry, he’s pulling up your pretty little trees
mother, he’s standing on the terrace
and there’s bits of broken trellis and brambles
tangled round his back and knees

go away, lazarus
i’ve been evicted from my home
sarcophagus blue

on the window, now he’s thumping
oh he’s wrapped up like a pudding
in his parcel head, i see his frightened eyes
mother, he’s full of rents and holes
i can see between his bones
and there’s nothing there but dust and flies

go away, lazarus
i’ve been evicted from my home
i want my cosy catacomb
it was a place to call my own
why did you roll away the stone?
sarcophagus blue
sarcophagus blue
sarcophagus blue
sarcophagus blue
sarcophagus blue
sarcophagus blue
