Religious foreground
Distorts the here and now by
Eternal longings
Eternal longings,
I definitely have those!
In heaven no pain.
In heaven no pain
But no thrills either, perhaps,
Just bland contentment.
Just bland contentment.
It's a safe place to rest in.
Away from the girls.
Away from the girls
With organdie dresses and
Yellow hair ribbons.
Yellow hair ribbons
Prettily wave in the wind.
A snare for catching.
A snare for catching
Voles and other small rodents
To be fed to owls.
To be fed to owls,
fowls lined up on dotted lines
and awaited rapture.
And awaited rapture
Is more rapturous than the
Unexpected sort.
Unexpected! Sort
of late to say that, when you
stood in line for hours!
Stood in line for hours
When what I really wanted
Was days, weeks and months.
Was days, weeks and months
worth it when you could have stood
for years at a time?
For years at a time.
Ever heard of hormones mate?
Can't hold them up much.
Can't hold them up much,
chemical cycles speed by
on little cat's feet.
On little cat's feet
The dinky slippers looked silly
So she took them off.
So she took them off
Her beautiful gown and veil
Left at the altar
Left at the altar
A candle stands in the dark
Without light on it
Without light on it,
the painting looked gloomy to
the visitor from Spain.
Visitors from Spain
Are used to light but Goya
Could be quite gloomy.
Could be quite gloomy
The sun as got his hat on
How naff is that eh?
