lyrics

undercover, high in a tree, his frightened lover hides in the reeds, she’s seeing colors & textures in between, this is the summertime, these are the birds & the bees, he’s got that look in his eyes with a blade at his side, gonna make her his bride by the end of the night, dead or alive, she’s sinking deep in the swamp through the silt & the slop, when her eardrums pop, bubbles rise to the top & all the music stops, he’s talking numbers & he’s counting words, trapping rabbits, now he’s wearing fur, though he reckons that it’s not absurd to walk backwards, baby, backwards, he’s gawking at her like a cat
