Jenny lay in a bluish heat
like a wasted dream her face was wrong.
The ancient clock pushed
time around on the shelf.
Mama stood with a leather frown
and Papa felt like some hysterical clown
with a concrete pie and
shoes that were far too big.
The doctor came with his bag of bones.
The soulcatcher crouched on the windowsill
with a gramaphone as the doctor scratched his
head and walked over
to Jenny sweating incest.
His hands froze as he touched her.
The birds peered from their
bamboo cage at the
soulcatcher lalalalalalalala
soulcatcher lalalalalalalala
soulcatcher lalalalalalalalala
Mama coughed and said
"How can we make her stay
when she talks in her sleep about leaving?"
Jenny looked through poisoned eyes
as a sick tune played on the gramaphone.
The doctor sighed and said
"Jenny won't change anymore".
Papa fled to the kitchen light
and Mama just spun in a crying jag,
whispering softly to herself.
The soulcatcher winked and grinned.
The doctor put his clinical toys away
and rode off on a pushbike.
And Jenny saw some indians that
rode in circles over her.
As the music got faster and faster
she called out to her
soulcatcher lalalalalalalala
soulcatcher lalalalalalalala
soulcatcher lalalalalalalalala
The birds flew round their cage
and broke their stupid wings
as the room seemed to start fading.
The soulcatcher took Jenny's soul away
and hung it up to dry on a big plane tree,
whispering softly to himself.
He tapped his foot and turned around
and disappeared down through a hole in the ground
where nothing
means
everything
everything
everything
everything
everything
like a wasted dream her face was wrong.
The ancient clock pushed
time around on the shelf.
Mama stood with a leather frown
