Sonny & The Sunsets - Year of the Cock lyrics

rate me

A winter the macpot’s hidden and ...

Dining on ...and bo evil

And there were no people except for me

I came to the sea to ride and to think

But I was so small next to my dreams

Like a man who might try and cross the seas

In the year of the cock

I began as a flea

Spring time came no words on the page

So the old sperm whale went looking for a prey

And when I found a dodo that’s hungry as me

I dragged her to my lair by the sea

Pushing forward so awkwardly

I laid her bare on the eucalyptus tree

In the year of the cock

It was hard, hard as can be

So I sat on her mental like an old stuffed goose

The olives... choose

And when our lives start to finally break loose

She called me a skanky raccoon on the loot

She though I was a rooster with the right kind of plumes

But I was only a chicken who had gone cute, cute

I was only a chicken

We’re gone choo choo

And just when I knew I was meant to be alone

I felt for it cold, so young and so bald

Really I said where your loving all go

Sure she said, but you’re more like a road

Like raging rams we butted our horns

I was a female stag kicking down the door

But then like a fish let back into the brook

In the year of the cock

I am off the hook

And then mother died so I flew back to the states

But my sister was a shark so the lion’s share was weasels away

And when I saw a girl I once knew living on the street

A hard year went from bad to bleak

My skin broke out like when I was a kid

It was back to the clinic for ... and treatments

And the doctors they gave the same old speeches

In the year of the cock

I was covered in leeches

And when our lies start ...to the...

The mad guy staring at this strange man named Feagle

A year of lust and lost questions

I guess a broken mind receives no lessons

If in fact I have fallen and cracked

Would I rise like a phoenix from the flames

Or was I just an egg full of clay

In the year of the cock

I crawled all night and all day.
