Robyn Hitchcock - The Inner Life of Scorpio lyrics

I don't know many actors
Or what an actor knows all I do is wonder
All I do is ponder the inner life of Scorpio

No, I don't know many actors
But when I get to shows
I marvel from the circle
Or I marvel from the cheap seats
At the inner life of Scorpio
It's hard to read an actor
They're a book that's quick to close
But nobody's escaping nobody's escaping
The inner life of Scorpio
The inner life of Scorpio

The ripple on the surface
Shows how deep the feelings go
It wracks their very being
It robs their way of seeing
It's the inner life of Scorpio

You've got such an inner life
Oh, you've got such an inner life, baby
You've got such an inner life, yeah

Like every dream companion
They'll sting you on the nose
It's some kind of voodoo
But they hurt more than you do
It's the inner life of Scorpio
