Piggy in the middle when the circus came to Town I was born with streaks of moonshine in my Veins Scratching hallelujahs on the up and outward Bound I found my Fay Wray dancing in the rain
She was murder, she was cause Flowing from the jungle dams Wrapt in a fog that obscured those shores She was growing wetter in her hinterlands
She was the perfume of pain Her love was acute And Monster-baiting again
She wrestled beauty with the snarl of a cat Washed up on my beach Like a matter of fact
A burning flame on the Wicker Man’s lap The place where she rose Peculiarity’s at
She was the essence of loss Hung out on a limb And Giant aping the cross
Girl from mystery island Seeking asylum, freed from the cage She’s quite an a acrobat, the let off bedroom Latch A reddened snatch from open debate
She was native, she was pure Her sins original before I liked her naked foreign cure She made my conquered heart beat Like the drumming of claws
She was the queen of delight A wall to wall savage With the keenest of minds
She was a delirious sight A belligerent witch Of voodoo and the night
And dirty creature to my Doctor Moreau The sway of dark hips Was a reason to know
Flashing invites with her animal eyes They spoke of a realm Where rites of passage decide
This force of nature A volcano meant to blow Where the hell did you come from angel? Where the fuck did you go?
The moon is cold and I am pleading This world is strange and so misleading Let me go my soul is needing The song beyond the gates
I rise now and set My mind on the coastal road I rise now and let you lie…
Good by My girl from mystery island Leaving asylum Freed to the skies
But why?
I want you back I will scour seven seas for you Turn cemeteries for you Pray I see you smiling in the face of strangers
