Tiny baby, so naive I can't believe what you believe You were once so happy here
It may not be Eden or summer in Greece You may not even find the Golden Fleece In the drag of this atmosphere
Now I don't want to bring up a delicate matter No I'd much rather bribe or flatter you 'Cause flattery gets me everywhere
But you've punctured my tyres, you've crossed all my wires I brand your acolytes as a pack of liars And the fire's singing everywhere
(Ripple) Buckle like a wreck in a cold green sea (Ripple) Like you were a ripple in my memory
I leant you some collateral to buy new clothes It went out the window and up your nose And that's the end of the honeymoon
Yeah we walked down the aisle for another mile I'd walk a million miles for one of your smiles And you can have all the money soon
(Ripple) Buckle like a wreck in a cold green sea (Ripple) Like you were a ripple in my memory
You're so deluxe, you're so divine You're so fifty light years ahead of your time You're a metal, you're a ripple
You're a human sacrifice to the goddess of vice Your hairdo is full of diamonds and lice And you're hardly off the nipple
(Ripple) Buckle like a wreck in a cold green sea (Ripple) Like you were a ripple in my memory (Ripple) Another little glitch in continuity (Ripple) Like you were a ripple in my memory
