And maybe you're the Line girl so hard not to let on you know I'm looking at the way your toes poke out through your at funny angles to your and how you it turns me on
Or maybe you're the Spanish playing with hair as you wait for your friend in that wild octagon of mirrors the Tate calls a shop And I can smell hair from here and I can see from eight different the way your nipples look that thin black cotton top to infinity And oh God, places like that and purple-tipped prose like this going to hemorrhage me, girl
Ooo, it's Girl, I'm only doing it to be to you
Or maybe the bay window girl in Wandsworth Town, in ripped and open Venetians painting the difficult of an empty room white a naked bulb leaning across the bar at the top of your at the precise I'm passing on the steep street at the of your garden in the gathering night voyeur's
Ooo, true: Girl, I'm only it to be closer to you
Or you're the foundation painter at the School, looking so fine-boned I could carry you in your portfolio case laced up gently so you cry out on the bus and give the game tied up lightly, girl how could I knowingly injure with perfect lips and wrists, your exquisite structure Oh, little acrylic painter, I can kiss eggshells, I can be all the say I'm such a sensitive singer
Ooo, it's Girl, I'm only doing it to be to you
And you're listening to my voice now on your or your bedsit Dansette letting my songs slip you on this quiet night in your pads of doodles and your fingers full of pencils and low tar And the music's light and pleasant so you hardly I'm singing about in "Paper Wraps Rock" And "Murderers, the of Women," my voice is just a sound pleases you enters you and leaves you just the same and that's how I want it to stay, because, you
Ooo, it's Girl, I'm only it to be closer to you
But some of those were bitter records which accuse women, like you of using your attractiveness wantonly and to trap and to men who wanted you and never have you men who sometimes the perverse urge to trash the women desired the most men who imagined they despised all those immaculate what adolescent crap, what kind of would sing that? Oh, not me because, you
Ooo, it's Girl, I'm only it to be closer to you
But I think that every man who writes every man who paints or composes, deep soul or it makes no difference, all those men are only do with substitutes: Solomon, Confucius, Kafka they'd never have done it if they'd been as as you sitting cross-legged with gentle music lapping around a promise, there your thighs meet of fertility a million couldn't compete with
Ooo, it's Girl, I'm only it to be closer to you
And all the time I see you in the eye of my mind, and all that cheap macho about de and misogyny vanishes into thin air and I'm to tears just like any other sucker who's been bruised by all the that weren't to be and yet who's to fall down on his knees in front of a woman, and "Whatever you may do, you may be to me despite the times we disagree, your ambitions your conventional I want you to know I respect you I accept you and I you to accept me I want to kiss you, kiss your stockinged the uniquely soft flesh on the undersides of hips,"
Ooo, true: Girl, I'm only doing it to be to you
And I've won you when I've fallen down in front of you, and "Damn Franz Kafka, damn the White Duke (damn the White Duke) it's you and you alone I'm this for," When I'm through with and pastiche (throwing darts in eyes) when you've let me make to you the slowest, deepest way I know how (when you do for me, baby) and it so good (bear with me) that's I'll think of Paul Klee's epitaph: "Here lies the painter Klee somewhat closer than usual to the heart of but far from enough,"
And girl, I lie far close enough to you...
