Cityscape Sky Baby Tab

by Super Furry Animals


  
She came in smelling of cabbages 
  
Pumpkin roots and all winter's ravages 
   
She came in around dawn 
 
Took her coat off 
   
Burdened down by the Russian winter 
  
Felt the warmth of the hearth 

  
Bathed a while naked in hot water 
  
Wash away imminent disaster 
   
Thinking through her today 
 
And the murder 
   
Of the bailiff and the landowner 
 
Felt no shame 
 
Only gain 

 
Cleansed the pike 
 
Peeled all the potatoes 
  
Beetroots ripe for bellies of gigolos 
    
Served it up for her son and her daughter 
   
For the last time she imagines 
  
Reprobates lie in wait
