The Leopard Lyrics

Robyn Hitchcock The Leopard

She walks like a leopard
Her feet padding down down down
With spots on her shadow
That sway as the sun goes round

He lies in the orchard
And gazes into the sun
His body is burning
But not for just anyone

One more animal
One more fox will slip away
You're an animal
Like your father in his day

I watch through the winter
I watch and I go insane
I see the formations
But don't make me look again

One more animal
No one thought would get away
Hear the orchestra
Of the leopard and her prey
