Blue Girls


N.B. Please do not read the lyrics whilst listening to the recordings


The blue girls that bake in the sun
Skin falls in flames from each one
Like leaves from autumn trees
They float upon the breeze

These girls you have loved
Are slowly decaying
Drying out in the sun
There for your eyes
Wild stares in your face
They seem to accuse
What have you done
To earn this surprise?

The flesh underneath candy-pink
Quite a strange affair, one might think
They gasp and moan for air
Each fish on your lawnchair

These girls you have loved
Are slowly decaying
Drying out in the sun
There for your eyes
Wild stares in your face
They seem to accuse
What have you done
To earn this surprise?

Fragments left at the end of the day
A pile of blue that is soon swept away
Goodbye, blue girls, goodbye
Would it be too much to cry?

These girls you have loved
Have slowly decayed now
They've dried out in the sun
There for your eyes
Wild stares in your face
It seemed to accuse
What did you do
To earn this surprise?
