| until his bones were stems upon the grass they dried |
| and made an alphabet of white upon the green |
| and it was beautiful and some would say obscene |
| she was vibrating she was vibrating she was vibrating |
| and in the demon's hat discolored flowers grew |
| and they had fleshy stems and fleshy petals too |

| Oh the bodies of drowned sailors and dead airmen |
| flounder upside down beneath the roaring wave |
| and the fishes eat the flesh from off their fingers |
| and the sea is so much deeper than the grave |
| and the pale English stone stands alone over me |
| oh the bodies rise and fall in slow motion |
| as the flesh gives way to coral and her charms |
| if you listen hard you'll hear the sea is breathing |
| and she's waiting there to hold you in her arms |
| and the pale English sun shone over me |
| oh the telegram is lying on the table |
| you left it there you can't believe its true |
| God finds you naked and he leaves you dying |
| what happens in between is up to you |
| and the luminous rose glows over me over me |

| and they are full of leather peas that rattle like a slow disease |
| I've got to have a nasty thought because of all the stuff I bought |
| from sultry Mr. Garrick Hobbs who does a load of useless jobs |
| and in the chapel after lunch they used to cluster in a bunch |
| sleeping with your devil mask is all I wanna do |
| and when I stop it means I'm through with you |
| yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah |
| it's all compulsion, there's no choice my mother's second name is Joyce |
| and once when she was very young she saw a cellist being hung |
| thirteen men with long black heads all came and stood around her bed |
| and when the morning light came in she saw their heads had all caved in |
| their rotting brains fell to the floor and crawled away towards the door |
| sleeping with your Devil mask is all I wanna do |
| and when I stop it means I'm through with you |

| Watching Romeo dissolve I was tempted to join him |
| by the mirror of the lake where the statues unfurled |
| I had never seen a man so abuse his reflection |
| as the light shines through your Chinese bones |
| watching Juliet unrobe I would hasten toward her |
| but around her feet I sat that her serpent was curled |
| and her eyeballs had rolled up so her pupils had vanished |
| and the light shines through your Chinese bones |
| as the light shines through your Chinese bones |
| I met an interesting dwarf and I told him a story |
| as he walked towards the East then the shadow was right |
| something Shakespeare never said was 'you've got to be kidding' |
| as the light shines through your Chinese bones |
| as the light shines through your Chinese bones |
| the line between us is so thin I might as well be you |
| and everywhere I've ever been I know you're going to |
| Chinese bones Chinese Bones |

| our hair like anemone's that wave beneath the seas |
| our fingers are like the fingers of baboons up in the trees |

| 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 |
| 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 |

| There's a house burning down on the radio, but |
| we're in love we don't mind we're as far as I can tell |
| everyone worries so much about themselves |
| there's nothing happening to you that means anything at all |
| there's a plane crashing down on the studio, but |
| we're in luck we're not there so we're somewhere else instead |
| everyone wishes so much upon themselves |
| there's not a thing that you can do that'll make me come again |
| there's a house burning down on the radio, but |
| we're in love we don't mind we're as far as I can tell |
| everyone worries so much about themselves |
| there's nothing happening to you that means anything at all |
| Thank You for your time. Sorry if this has disappointed. If someone would |
| be kind enough to figure out the rest of it and post, I would be much |
