You have a heart and I have a key Lie back and let me unlock you Those heathens you hang with down by the sea All they want to do is defrock you I know a river, where we can dream
It will swell up, burst it´s banks, babe, and rock you But if you´re gonna dine with them cannibals Sooner or later, darling, you´re gonna get eaten But I´m glad you´ve come around here with your animals And your heart that is bruised but unbeaten And beating like a drum
I will sit like a bird on a fence Sing you songs with a happy ending Swoop down and tell you that it don´t make sense To attack the very thing you´re defending Didn´t I just buy that dress for you? That pink paper pinafore that you keep mending Well, if you´re gonna dine with the cannibals Sooner or later, darling, you´re gonna get eaten But I´m glad you´ve come around
here with your animals And your heart that is banging and beating And banging like a gong
I can see that they´ve hurt you, dear Here is some moonlight to cloak us And I will never desert you here Unpetaled among the crocus Allow me, my love, to allay your fear As I swim, in and out of focus But if you´re gonna dine with the cannibals Sooner or later, darling, you´re gonna get eaten But I´m glad you´ve come around here with your animals And your heart that is bruised but bleating And bleeding like a lamb Banging like a gong Beating like a drum
