lyrics

i. March of Love
Arnold played the organ
In a church the nightshade hid from sight
Each time Mendelssohn’s chimes
Signalled someone else’s bride
He cried to the sunrise,
“I must find myself a wife!”
When outside selling kutti-pi

A flash of silver hair
Pulls him from his chair
He takes the elevator
Finds the corner where
She’d peddling her wares
Arnold boldly dares

And with the devil’s breath
He whispers in her ear
And her eyes like black fire fix to his

Beguiled in the church aisle
A groom grows impatient of his love
Suddenly wide-eyed and chemically hypnotised
She arrives on the organ player’s glove
Though he’d see a ring on finger three
It seems her mind is out to eat
Oh my darling one
Oh lord what, what have you done?

He hastens to object
Grips the parapet
With lips still tingling from her cherry cigarette
Silence veils the crowd
Arnold takes a bow

Darling look at what you’ve become
Yourself within this little dream of mine
And I’m destined to believe in you only
I’ve synthesised my perfect wife
Now through your cracks like water will I flow
Til I control every inch of you

ii. Swamp Boogie
Baby knit your arms around me
Slither shake your soulstring at me
Double up the dosage in you
Tango for your life
Don’t you feel me deep within you
Pulling on your strings to move you
Pucker up now get in closer
You can’t help but comply

You’ll be safe with me forever and ever
Inside this insatiable
Your not quite normal picture
A love scene I’ve seen again and again
On the viewscreen buried deep inside my head

Layer after layer after layer…

iii. Long Live Slime
She politely descends from the stair
Deep in her circuitry scorched and impaired
Hair in palls of white
No-coloured eyes
Doll devoid of light and shorn of life
Come to me sweet symmetry
Touch me
Feel me

But she’s quite unaware of his hands
Tracing the lines of her mammary glands
She belongs to me
How can this be?
All these days I’ve yearned for this to see
Could it be my symphony
Is turning to bitter elegy?

Arnold puts his gloved hand
Into the quivering mass of slime
That was his lady wife
She politely swallows
All of his vitamins like a flower
Beautiful cannibal
