verlaines - bird dog lyrics
where, oh where did the age come from that struck with such a sour note? it’s a shame that the muse that brought you here keeps donning the dog skin coat but the news is out this year that the easy-pleaser road is here
and she’s a picture dressed in hay and all the preachers up and run here it is christmas every day and no-one gives nothing to anyone
i hold my point of view it’s lying i hate the most but the bird that sang love in your ear has swallowed a fatal dose if there’s poison in your cup well you picked your tree: now bark it up
and if i live to seventy and all of my bones begin to seize oh lord don’t leave, don’t leave to me a one and only way to dream
the bloodshot eye sees paradise and knows just where it lies dissolves into grief that this crazy machine does not go there…
i saw the picture, saw the play i read the book along the way i didn’t need to see the end cos every end was just the same
there wasn’t a h-ll of a lot to tell he wrecked whatever he’d undertake he got old, he got slow and every death was on his face
but i never thought i’d see the day the dog of honour disappear he bought a boarding house for slaves and drinks imported german beer
once the bird has stopped its mouth, once you’re in this dream you don’t get out
i love this imported german beer they know how to make it over there the bird returns to soothe my ear i love this imported german beer
