jockstrap - the city lyrics

Loading...

the city i met was pink
i tasted the city
ate out in the city
the sky called up to me and said
‘here you can be the city’
what do i want ,what do i want
“i certainly want the city” i thought
a thousand thoughts for a thousand times i’ve loved in sheets with it on my mind
you opened the doors
the doors onto the veranda
and i ran outside in the mustard air
my arm outstretched to feel her hair

i breathed in a city like a fool
but only because it was you
my homing guide
you told me i could have what you could not provide
well i believed you so
and we would last forever, we thought
i told you in the city light and your face was warm and your eyes were bright

i wish i’d known
i was alone
in city life

the hideous monster and the beaver
ugly monster kept house with the beaver
head scr+ping like against the kitchen ceiling
cook for the beaver on the plastic dishes
all of the land was ice, ice
grey morning light
‘you poor baby’
‘beaver beaver!’ he said
i sat on the beavers face, and he sat on the beavers face and told him what the problem was

in the light the monster was frying four eggs in a huge black frying pan
and golden buckwheat and rye in iron toaster, hit the ceiling, onto the blue tiled, errrr
the dutch china plates on the round red table
rose petal jam, orange+lemon
ginger marmalade, blossom jelly, jelly
the beaver was taking a shower he refused to use shower curtains so blue water was flooding the bathroom

the only thing the beaver saw was the white morning sunlight and, and the only thing he heard was the shower water falling like the beating of this heart
monster to the bear: “so it’s all power power power can’t sleep or think or dream of anything else. i hate you and i hate your money.”
the bear raged. the bear forgot himself and threw himself against the door even harder
