Robyn Hitchcock The Shapes Between Us Turn To Animals
Desires muck and algae were the shadows on the wall glasses shatter ornaments on to the ground they fall our hair like anemone's that wave beneath the seas our fingers are like the fingers of baboons up in the trees and the shapes between us turn into animals the shapes between us The lion is your anger as it smashes up the chair the zebra is my answers as your pounding up the stairs that's black and white and yes and no and can't make up it's mind when you gonna see that love is dumb as well as blind oh the shapes between us turn into animals the shapes between us when the night is over and the dawn comes shining through everything is smashed to bits including me and you the animals are snoring open-mouthed inside the cage waiting for the wine to turn and ache into a rage 'cause the shapes between us turn into animals the shapes between us
