David Sylvian

The Rabbit Skinner
Who'll do for him Child of the fifties With no common sense No easy resting place Only lichen on beaches Oil on gun barrel And the hard taste of pennies A God in his folly Stands as proud as you please The lungs won't full, the heart won't start Bad luck child of the seas And he alone, is a man without qualities Combed his body for disorders But the disease lived on in far-off quarters As a God everything was filled to excess As a man he settled for less Here lies the rabbit skinner God love the rabbit skinner A life without purchase, no story to tell And three little bitches fight where he fell SongtexteFoxes, foxes, give her a sign And tell the little girl, and show her what's mine Play hard and fast with the rules if you please Here lies a man, without qualities Aus Songtexte Mania
