laurie shaw - polytunnel lyrics

i saw it through the bamboo shoots
he was trying to reach your opal fruits
adam and eve
and the eden project
in a cascade of cherubs with lutes
so was i like, god?
or was i the devil?
i was whichever one jumped out the bushes
and went “caught you red handed!” in the bible
it’s like, a whole religious thing…

remember the house
where outside i kissed you?
the walls were papered in raised +n+lypta
i must havе done a bad job
servicing your cupid’s bow
‘cause i nеver really saw you again
i never really saw you again
some clever lines must equal s+x
i just had to solve for x
he lost marks on a filthy text
but worse was my earnestness
solving the cryptograph of virginity loss it’s like the sp+ce race
but buddy you’ve already lost
but i split the layer of permafrost
when i heard you call my name
in the polytunnel
i realised then you were just a defrauder as my incisors met your vermillion border collecting bed post notches
like an antique h++rder
i dropped into the sea
didn’t make me feel too good
like a s+x scene
or a philtrum stud
but i had to believe
i had to believe that
time would mop the dread up
well the glossiness is gone
like an advert for an escort agency, partially faded
i wish that you could look inside my head
like that million dollar man doll
and see yourself through my eyes
know how i feel inside
it’s frozen in formaldehyde forever
writing your name in the water vapour
penning you love notes on parchment paper
it all fades fast
when you hit that certain age
i remember your mum and dad’s settee
it was leather
it was beige
i didn’t want to share you
i wasn’t jesus christ
i just wanted to move you
like a poltergeist

methuselah is a great basin
bristlecone pine
it was knocking about nearly three thousand years
before the time of christ
can you feel the buzz?
kicking in like the extinction of the bumblebee
in the polytunnel of love
