[Junior Brother - I Will Have To Keep An Eye On You And Win You Back When You Are Free Again lyrics]
By the thought of the next few months
Pinned like paint to the ceiling
By a strange sort of feeling
Like a pot robbed of it's brim
Unable to stop filling
I need an ear to collect my insides
There’s a hole in the wall
Covered by the cupboard
Meant to get in a man in last May
I feel so sorry for myself these days
I am in need of such selfish things
I will have to keep an eye on you
And win you back when you are free again
The swooping of laces as I tie my feet
The carving of a hull where the timbers meet
The day he bolts
Keep an eye out for a straggler on the shore
Not words, nor silence, nor a song came forth
But a bubble of spit
Which popped and dribbled
Stretching it's arms to the floor
Rippling into an ocean of suds rising hourly
There’s a man in me
Somewhere in the undergrowth
There’s a big man waiting for to pounce
I feel so sorry for myself these days
I am in need of such selfish things
I will have to keep an eye on you
And win you back when you are free again
You know him well, he’s as good as they come
But if he disappeared, I’d up and run
Out from the undergrowth in from the port
