lyrics

The big man has come up from the underbrush and given off a smell
His wristwatch counts hours by infinities and the dog sniffs curiously
Somewhere Fortune screams, "I have lost my way", and the Cosmos chimes "Good riddance"
The fig trees swell with such a juiciness, women gather round and blush

I will not say what cannot be said
Oh shoot, I've gone and said it
And if it was God who heard we could not be sure, could just as well been the devil
For round his head grew the slippery elm and his fingernails spiralled like seashells
His eyes clouded up with a thick white fog that billowed out of the sockets

If I do believe what I believe I see, Earth's garden has gone berserk
Saturn's rings spinning round my ears and the moon shining in my throat
The big man of the underbrush whose broad chest I had admired
All whimsied flora'd and fauna'd and shot out straight through mystery's wondrous ass
