Oh these precocious nights of the winter
Like tar slide down each window pain
And you can have just what you will in water soluble pills
And you can find yourself some nostalgic state
And the salty wind will kick back from the ocean
It will clatter round your root canals and worse
So fill your hands with anything that rattles
But first you must come nimble through the dust
And come with fruit peel
And come with bags of leaves
Come with tantalising finger strokes and grinning limousines
Come crawling from the woodwork
Wry and brittle as a rake
For we must dine before we suffocate
Us poor canicular fauns
See a knife is to a nose is to a split lip
As the circus of the neighborhood unfolds
So keep the good half of your face under a veil and play it safe
For the rabble with be frozen with the cold
And they'll come with fruit peel
They'll come with bags of leaves
They'll come with tantalising finger strokes and grinning limousines
They'll crawl out from the woodwork
Wry and brittle as a rake
For we must dine before we suffocate
Us poor canicular fauns
Yes the puddle it is deep
The cows are licking up your face
You found the chisel just to sculpt
But you'll use it to mate
Ain't that right?
Yes the puddle it is deep

Ain't that right?

Come crawl out from the woodwork
Wry and brittle as a rake
For we must dine before we suffocate
Us poor canicular fauns
