Lady Lou and Other Creepy Crawlers

from Songs From the Bunker by Ian Taylor

/

lyrics

I saw your face 'neath that cool yellow light
an' I thought perhaps this all was a dream
I saw your soul just as round as your eyes
an' it made my self-explanatory scream.
Just like Lady Lou in her red tinsel boots
and her hairdo like some cat from Japan
no, she can't be beat with that camel in her teeth
and the way she holds her pool stick in her hand.
Watch Mary in green disappear from the scene
guess her violet lipstick's had enough
but what a shame all the rules of this game
cause I'll miss her now that she's gone.
Somewhere up north a new child is born
the drunkards in the street still like to sing
the jogger's jog, the thinker's in his fog
an' the world keep spinning itself into it's grave.
Nobody knows Mitochondrial Eve, she's got rose pedals in her shoes
feigning joy in her speech, I'm using all my ink
just to make her look more like you,
