Teaching English Through Sex and Death

歌詞

His sweetheart lost her bearings The girl with a Walkman drew him out of her room I use that phrase advisedly Very assured these bastions of middle classes Sweet, wholesome, insecure all the same That's bijou reparation No time for a confirmatory phone call So no sweetheart destination in mind Waiting is a whole new life time But repetition does become intimate What have they done to me? There's separate places in all innocent cultures A new language, a new science Curiosity that derives from separation That fascination at other people's lives Secrets, sleepless I wonder no one would like these Abstract qualities to bound her But no one's going to rescue her Beside a map of Southern England Two scuttle, an eagle eye Trying to escape their destination
