KING CRIMSON - Neurotica lyrics

rate me

Good morning, it's 3am in this great roaring<br>City full of garbage eaters ravaging parking<br>Spots beneath my plaza window I see cheetah in their<br>Tight skins and tired heels all-night hippo in<br>The diner crossing the street swarthy heards of young<br>Impala flambastic gibbon even a struggling monza<br>And over there that brilliant head ornament on that<br>Japanese macaque but look closely at the hammerhead hand<br>In hand with the mandrill, it's a sight you're<br>Unlikely to see anywhere else on the planet...<br><br>The stench and noise, yes, yes, the howler's<br>Resonating repertoire is not too bad when mixed with<br>The more musical twern of the tropical warbler but the<br>Impatient taxi blare the squawking elderly ibis and<br>The glass-eye snapper hawking papers I can certainly<br>Live without also be cautious of the poisonous<br>Boomslang laughter social droppings of the fruit bat<br>And purple queen fish and who's that babbler conversing<br>With a magazine stand? evidently he's getting a good<br>Reply...<br><br>Arrive in neurotica<br>Through neon heat disease<br>I swear at the swarming heards<br>I sweat the foul terrain<br>I rove the moving scenery<br>I have no fin<br>No wing no stinger<br>No claw no camouflage<br>I have no more to say...<br><br>Say...isn't that an elephant fish on the corner over<br>There look at that blush baby mud puppy noolbenger<br>Rhinoderma marmoset spring peeper shingleback skink<br>Siren skate starling sun-gazer spoonbill and suckers,<br>They seem to be everywhere, well it's a live revue<br>Random animal parts now playing nightly right here in neurotica...<br>So long...
