lyrics

I'm on a metallic tape
over a deep gap
between the isle and the coast

It's just been put on paper
that I am a soldier
from a cold planet

my heraldic stuff
is both masculine and feminine
I slew the dragon
since my armor resisted its breath

I walked into darkness
when you son were the only light
no erotic moon nor streetlamps
nor Bengal lights up above

blue was the world
when my hand dropped down into the other hand
and the great troubadour waited
on each and every word

If I look down
at the metallic tape
in which I am reflected all the time
If I look down I see my cunt

where harpies nested all around
many years ago
I was young then
and had no confidence at all

look, look at this!
This letter proves, dear people in the tent
the amount of electricity I spent
on each and everyone of you.
