When our mouths are filled
with uninvited tongues of others
And the strays are pining
for their unrequited mothers
Milk that sours is promptly spat
Light will fill our eyes like cats
And they shall enter from the back
With spears and scepters and squirming sacks
Scribs and tangles between their ears
Faceless scrumbled charcoal smears
...oh dear...
Through the coppice and the chaparral
The thickets thick with mold
The bracken and the brier
Catchweed into the fold
(whistle solo)
When our mouths are filled
with uninvited tongues of others
And the strays are pining
for their unrequited mothers
Milk that sours is promptly spat
Light will fill our eyes like ...cats
Light will fill our eyes like cats
