Under Milk Wood (single mix)

by Jean Koning

/

lyrics

the wreck and sprat
circling with modest sets
make sure you'll soon forget
before we rage against the tragic of it

syrup-gold curls
revealing prince albert's pearls
we both let our flag unfurl
before we rage against the tragic of the night

titbits and topsyturvies / i have always wanted nights
dandruff and topsyturvies / i have always wanted nights
moonshine and topsyturvies / i have always wanted nights
whalejuice and topsyturvies / i have always wanted nights
i have truly always wanted bandaging nights with you

can you see the dire places
whiped from our tired faces
don't show old lipstick traces
arsenic is served with graces
can you see the dire places
whiped from our tired faces
don't show old lipstick traces
arsenic is served with graces here

from washing line
our sweet morals in decline
it might end up in denial
before we rage against the tragic of it

moonless night
under milk wood's shoe black skies
let me shipwreck in your thighs
before we rage against the tragic of the night

titbits and topsyturvies / i have always wanted nights
dandruff and topsyturvies / i have always wanted nights
moonshine and topsyturvies / i have always wanted nights
whalejuice and topsyturvies / i have always wanted nights
i have truly always wanted bandaging nights with you

can you see the dire places
whiped from our tired faces
don't show old lipstick traces
arsenic is served with graces
can you see the dire places
whiped from our tired faces
don't show old lipstick traces
arsenic is served with graces here
