Gimme The Word歌词
Psychedelic invocations
Of Mata Hari at the station
I give to you
A Java princess of Hindu Birth
A woman of flesh a child of earth
The hanging gardens of Babylon
Miles Davis the black unicorn
The Palaces of Montezuma
And the Gardens of Akbar's tomb
The spider Goddess and the Needle Boy
The slave-dwarves they employ
A custard-coloured super-dream
Of Ali McGraw and Steve McQueen
C'mon baby, let's get out of the cold
And give me, give me, give me your precious love for me to hold
The epic of Gilgamesh
A pretty little black A-line dress
The spinal cord of JFK
Wrapped in Marilyn Monroe's negligee
I want nothing in return
Just the softest little breathless word
I ask of you
A word contained in a grain of sand
That can barely walk can't even stand
Oh c'mon baby, let's get out of
