The Legendary Pink Dots - Waiting For The Cloud текст песни

The river was rainbow stew
The fishes choked and cursed
The thirsty dogs spat fire

Rolled in glue, then they burst
The fur balls flying, trees were dying
Dandelions were crippled, bald. . .
We saw it all in colour
Now we're waiting for the cloud

A mother forcefed baby milk
Which ticked and bubbled black
She sank it back with plastic pills
Although it stank. . . seemed thankful
Rolled up in her sack
She won't be back
She won't grow old. . .
We saw it all in colour
Now we're waiting for the cloud

And crocodiles were sprouting wings
Dead sheep filled the fields
The children rode on locusts
And threw slings at anything
That could be killed and eaten raw
No weeping sore, no claws, no balls. . .
We saw it all in colour
Now we're waiting for the cloud

We're told it could be 15 days
We're busy digging holes
The deep ones for the pure selected
Shallow ones for old and sick
The derelicts, the poor
The junkies, criminals, the whores
There's more, there's red and yellow
Black and blue
There's me, there's you
(Waiting for the cloud)
