Chestnut
The facts of my life is laid out like tealeaves
Your mouth glistened like a kitchen
Your Adam's apple rattled like a kettle
I put soapy bubbles on my face, I looked just like Father Christmas
Twelve of us wounded with drink on the deck
I haven't slept through the night once this year yet
I said I liked your smile, no wait that's not right, it's that you looked like you walked out of the movies
Crying and shaking, shaking and crying
I was your witness, I was your witness, I was your witness then
For just a moment I forgot your chestnut hair
In the mirror in the frame of a desiccated shack
On stilts like a monster gaping mouth
Rising up out of the south, rising up out of the south

Crying and shaking, shaking and crying
I was your witness, I was your witness, I was your witness then
(Interlude = instruments – no lyrics)
And the hall smelt of new shoes
And the hall smelt of new shoes
And the hall smelt of new shoes
And the hall smelt of new shoes
And the hall smelt of new shoes
And the hall smelt of new shoes
(interlude)
