Rainbow Trout
Thinnest lips, blue and white With the scent of Demerol above It would stink, it would cry Touching all extremities with lice Oh, sweet babe Don’t cry Oh, sweet babe Don’t cry An apartment, electric bulb Passing down the Technicolor boats On the TV, on the show In the hall of ugliness and love She would see it, comin out While she cooked the rainbow trout Forced its head down to the flame Pushed its eyelids up against its brain Oh it’s quiet Sing to sleep tonight Hush, so quiet You I love, you I love Oh, sweet babe Don’t cry Oh, sweet babe Don’t cry Letras de cancionesAs the body shook with pain, It was thrown again and again Up against the fissured wall Covered in the bile of its maw Stung with insects, real and feigned It absorbed the scent from all its stain She would look down, blue and white Crush its head beneath the carving knife Oh it’s quiet Sing to sleep tonight Hush, so quiet You I love, you I love From Letras Mania
