Peter Gabriel - The Family And The Fishing Net

 (versiyon 1)
Metin boyutu: ( + Büyült ) ( - Küçült)   
Suffocated by mirrors, stained by dreams

     Her honey belly pulls the seams

     Curves are still upon the hinge

     Pale zeros tinge the tiger skin

 

     Moist as grass, ripe and heavy as the night

     The sponge is full, well out of sight

     All around the conversations

     Icing on the warm flesh cake

 

     Light creeps through her secret tunnels

     Sucked into the open spaces

     Burning out in sudden flashes

     Draining blood from well-fed faces

 

     Desires form in subtle whispers

     Flex the muscles in denial

     Up and down its pristine cage

     So the music, so the trial

 

     Vows of sacrifice, headless chickens

     Dance in circles, they the blessed

     Man and wife, undressed by all

     Their grafted trunks in heat possessed

 

     Even as the soft skins tingle

     They mingle with the homeless mother

     Who loves the day but lives another

     That once was hers

 

     The worried father, long lost lover

     Brushes ashes with his broom

     Rehearses jokes to fly and hover

     Bursting over the bride and groom

 

     And the talk goes on

 

     Memories crash on tireless waves

     The lifeguards whom the winter saves

 

     Silence falls the guillotine

     All the doors are shut

     Nervous hands grip tight the knife

     In the darkness, till the cake is cut

     Passed around, in little pieces

     The body and the flesh

     The family and the fishing-net

     And another in the mesh

 

     The body and the flesh
