No I Don't Remember Guildford Lyrics

Robyn Hitchcock No I Don't Remember Guildford

No, I don't remember Guildford
What, was there something?Jog my memory
Not the cathedral or the pool
If there was a pool
I'm a little past it
I'm near enough to be scorched, not blasted
But no, I don't remember Jenner Road
Even though we lived there
And things came through the letterbox thick and fast
It's in the past
It's in the bracken
Did something happen?The sky just blackened
Now there's a butterfly on my face
And I'm a number in a drawer
Ba da dup
Ba da da da dup
Ba da dup
Hang up your net, child
Show some respect to the ghosts that are ruining your
life
It's your life
No, I don't remember falling
From a flagpole onto a taxi
To leave my imprint and my entrails
For you to kiss
In the morning sun
Ba da dup
Ba da da dup
Ba da dup
No, I don't remember Guildford
