Momus - Foxy Little Otter lyrics

You swaggered like an otter
As you walked across the room
I offered some resistance
It crumbled pretty soon

When you waved your otter flippers
And swam into my lair
With paws instead of fingers
And water in your hair

You're industrious you're illustrious
Swallow then devil may care

You're a foxy little otter
But, you didn't get to me
Until you spread the water
Like a carpet at my feet

And dust is all that matters
Dust is all we need and fur is made of atoms
Scattering like seed

You're industrious you're illustrious
A woman's work is never done

You foxy little otter you didn't get to me
Until you spread the water
Like a carpet at my feet

And dust is all that matters
Dust is all we need and fur is made of atoms
They're scattering like seed

And stars are just beginning
Spilling like the sun
They say an otter's work is never done

I love you like the lumber lumber on the dam
I really hope you love me love me as I am

And stars are aspirations
Fur is all we scent love is just fixation
And dust wait's at the end

You're industrious you're illustrious
Swallow then devil may care
