Water in the well
water in the well
Well, did it break a hole in time?
and did the chances call his name?
and did he fall deep in love
Oh, did he fall deep in love?
water in the well
water in the well
Well, was the full moon above?
what did the full moon speak of?
and did it light the world for him?
Oh, did she light the world for him?
Water,
offer her offerings of the bell
of the late daddy
water, of holy bells
into the water pail
water, water behind the holy veil
Getting hotter,
hotter....
mercy loves me
mercy loves me
Well was the full moon above?
and did the full moon speak of..
and did it light the world for him
Oh did she light the world for him?

Our friends have gone to the big one
they come home with our smokes, to the red one
your face has sunken in in the past couple hours
his gaze has made your heart flop and your stomach turn sour
Jimi your solo coldn't make me any higher
i can be anyone tonight
oooh, the cowboy whispers to you
his obession with lions
and those bitemarks on your neck are well imposed
and i come home to the blue lace and the singers in my livin room
and i come home in the red lace and the wedding rings are on the table
on the table, ahh
who is that boy who makes me see me lying with thee?
who is he?
the smoothest legs he could ever ask for
the cellophone on top of the dresser
ooh he knows your story and he knows your lips
the phone rotary goes round and round
around the town
and i come home to the blue lace and the singers in my living room
and i come home in the red lace and the wedding rings are on the table
are on the table, ahh
and i say Madam, tell you, what a very nasty kind of thing
tie her up to anything you've written in your dreams
take another chance oh honey yes, to be with me

Oh darlin, what do you see in me?
oh darlin, look what you do to me
knights in shining armour
don't have your charms or sweet words
or shower me with moonbeams from the sea
oh darlin, i think im falling for you
oh darlin, weak in the knees for you
baby, ic ant handle,
your eyes they glow like candles
and wakin up beside you is a dream
and to lose you..
oh it would be a shame..
darlin be gentle with me
your mighty hands on me
you can take all of me

Well i still have to pay the bills
and i still have to go to bed at a reasonable time
and i still have to eat my fill
and i still have to work for my dime

Look! that lady's in love,
its the lady of shallot
she stopped to pick flowers,
but now she charges by the hour
A poem to keep you intact
take away the mythology and who knows how you'd act
and you were so mean
my father he was mean to me
my mother she was mean
I followed you home last night from school
You looked so pretty...i just had to take you with me
I think you deserved it, that body's made for sin
Come girl, you will like it, just give in
and you were so mean
my father he was mean to me
my brother he was mean
Such a simple imprint I meant to leave
but those sands have been spit on
and ravaged, and heaved
Oh, should I feel ashamed to look upon this mess?
My mission in vain leaves a whole in my love chest
And you were so mean
My father he was mean to me
My mother she was mean

Willow

They say that it's haunted, but they don't know a thing
you thought it would hit you in the stomach, wasn't a way
We're running round the grounds
They've made my moon a sin
Ha! Fa-la-la!
Our merry home
and love of willow
But cometh thy misty glow
My skin has turned to gray
My body's lost it's way
Your rumours keep us safe
When i'm running round the grounds
Let them go on knowing the better part of me
What if we go planting a willow,
My burly barrier,
my burly barrier,
My protector
We're running round the grounds
They've made my moon a sin
Ha! Fa-la-la!
Our merry home
and love of willow
But cometh thy misty glow
My skin has turned to gray
My body's lost it's way
Your rumours keep us safe
When i'm running round the grounds
