lyrics
Fan the face of virility
Taunt the failing knights
Commanders can’t command
Wives, genealogical fruits
Defences Open
Cloaca Open
Walls Open
Wings Open
Defences Open
Cloaca Open
Walls Open
Wings Open
Seawall Open
Beaks Open
Tails Open
Claws Open
Good men create hard birds
You and Hard Birds delight
Avian Rapture
Defences Open
Cloaca Open
Walls Open
Wings Open
Seawall Open
Beaks Open
Claws Open
Ultimatum I need strategic location
Lay my daughter and make two
But the feathers, the feathers, the feathers
Ultimatum I am a boat for the shallows
Can’t send a bird to the gallows
It just flaps her flaps her flaps
Ultimatum I need strategic location
Lay my daughter and make two
But the feathers, the feathers, the feathers
Ultimatum I am a boat for the shallows
Can’t send a bird to the gallows
It just flaps and flaps and flaps
The feathers on my bed they betray
To staff that spill their guts
With the slightest razor cut
And they talk In my halls
With tales so tall that Gods can’t help but listen in
Gods can’t help but listen in
Gods can’t help but listen in
Gods can’t help but listen in
God I can’t resist her glistening
Now dance…
The Knights they tried depose me but they couldn’t
Tarocchini Tarocchini Tarocchini
The priests they tried to convert me but they can’t
Tarocchini Tarocchini Tarocchini
The drunks they tried to impair me but they couldn’t
Tarocchini Tarocchini Tarocchini
The Harbour comes in Centuries
And that bird is becoming blue and royal
I can tell the future stronger it’s the guts of a bird
It’s the guts of every bird
Inside mine
Inside it’s
Flying diving walking swimming
Everywhere nowhere throne
Better than a stallion cos birds can fly
I can tell the future stronger it’s the guts of a bird
It’s the guts of every bird
Inside mine
Inside it’s
Flying diving walking swimming fucking
Everywhere I can tell the stallion better cos the birds can fly
Envy is green, and purple like scorn
Toes that have sat in a puddle too long
At my gate as I do kissy faces too a wheel of eyes
St Elmo’s fire skies open up but they turn right face at the strumpets that pace the palace disgracing the phallus saying yoo hoo boys to a gaping wound
Feathers don’t burn peacock don’t smell
A hairpin turn on a chariot drawn by my belle back to the hutch where we first laid eyes her beak cut my tongue and I cried in delight I signed my soul with a quill from her thigh
Shimmering colours plague my dreams at night I’ll never be man again
Give a man a fish and he’ll eat for a day
Give a man a bird and he’ll never pay for the touch of a whore, holy land or war games and parades of learners in serfdom watching me kiss blood relatives with wrinkled eyes that look of a salt marsh nemesis and sit idly to be conquered, but catch a flyer and revel in Archangel Dynasty
Ultimatum I need strategic location
Lay my daughter and make two
But the feathers, the feathers, the feathers
Ultimatum I am a boat for the shallows
Can’t send birds to the gallows
This injustice, the flaps, the flaps
