Monochrome Set On The 13th Day
On the thirteenth day my true love gave to me (x3,
Chorus)
Corrugated horse flesh candy in lime marmalade
Dolphin heads in aspic with a butterfly brocade
(Chorus)
Lyre-birds in a stained glass cage, with lightning rods
as plumes
Double-jointed black men playing leap-frog on the moon
(Chorus)
Sea foam in a snow white shroud, red herrings round its
teeth
Puffball spores exploding on a bed of burning wreaths
(Chorus)
Venus fly-trap tigers of a tin-foil tapestry
Timber moles in mustard, warbling in a minor key
(Chorus)
