Bad Examples Man Underwater
Shiver me timbers, blow me away in a dead mans hat Scatter my bones in a Singapore alleyway Ill hang my head in a Hong Kong wind and hum a homesick song A cigarette burning on the tip of my tongue When the ship pulls into harbor And the moth burns its wings and falls Incense burning in the dragonfly room come sit on my knee Mumble unknown Oriental words Shadows dance from the candles and the sandalwood taste of skin So hot tonight the air is as heavy as gauze When the ship pulls into harbor And the moth burns its wings and falls Man underwater -- Im here in the belly of the beast Man underwater -- Im choking on an invisible feast Got rolled last night by a shadow who cut my lip with a stone Woke in the gutter with blood on my chinnie chin chin Made it back to the ship and the groan of the hawser pulling at the wharf Pulled a sliver of glass from my hand Man underwater -- Im here in the belly of the beast Man underwater -- Im choking on an invisible feast So kiss me again, you know I spent good money for this Ill slip into you like the mainland mists at dawn Ill crush your lips are as hot and sweet as the milk of my mothers love Shes dead and denied but youre still young and firm Man underwater -- Im here in the belly of the beast Man underwater -- Im choking on an invisible feast Man underwater -- Im here in the belly of the beast Man underwater -- Im choking on an invisible feast On an invisible feast ... on an invisible feast ... on an invisible feast
