Intro: Am F (x2) G
C When our mouths are filled
with Funinvited tongues of others
C And the strays are pining
Ffor their unrequited mothers
C Milk that sours is promptly Gspat
Light will fill our eyAmes like cats F
C And they shall enter from the back F
With spears and scepters and squirming Csacks
Scribs and tangles between their Gears
Faceless scrumbled charcoal sAmmears
F (C)
...oh dear...
Through the coppice and the chaparral
The thickets thick with mold
The bracken and the brier
Catchweed into the fAmold F Am F
