Robyn Hitchcock
The Crawling
Something is crawlingYes it's crawlingOut of a dark placeInto a light placeSomething is spawningYes it's spawningOut of a damp placeInto a dry placeSomething is swarmingYes it's swarmingOut of a flaky placeInto a scented placeI see the trailThe broken stems of cornI see the shadowBut not the thing itselfI see the plume of smokeOn the horizonI hear the shouts & screamsBut I don't know muchSomething is crawlingWhy do you ask me?Why do you touch me?Letras de cancionesWhy do you ask me?Why do you touch me?Because there's nothing leftIt's only flesh & bloodBecause there's nothing thereIt's only flesh & bloodYou think you've got her& you're a lucky guyBut can you hold a fish?You think you know herYou're so intuitiveBut can you know a mist?Yeah, how long do you want it?How long have you got it, baby, flesh & blood?Have you got it, baby, flesh & blood?
