Head Over Heels

---------------



1 When Mama Was Moth



Sunburst and snowblind

I'd seen the(I shouldn't fear) fear running down my brook

While mama was clear(queer), one more brook

Chills all start screaming

Ribbed and veined



The sunburst and the snowblind

I'd seen the(I shouldn't) fear running down my brook

When mama was moth, I took bulb form

Body electric

Writhe in vain



Body electric



2 Five Ten Fiftyfold



Wheezing and sneezing

Tenfold it blew apart

It halved it in half

And went gushing gust wind



Five ten fiftyfold

Five ten fiftyfold



Wheezing and sneezing

And in hand a little hand(It halved it in half)

By taking it forward

It went gushing gust wind



Five ten fiftyfold

Five ten fiftyfold



Wheezing and sneezing

Tenfold it blew apart

When gushing gust winds

Turned just up north



Wheezing and sneezing

In hand a little hand

By taking it forward

It went gushing gust wind



Five Ten Fiftyfold (5x)



Wheezing and sneezing and

Sneezing and wheezing and sneezing and

Sneezing and wheezing and sneezing and

Sneezing and wheezing and sneezing and 



Five Ten Fiftyfold (3x)



3 Sugar Hiccup



Sugar hiccup, hiccup

Sugar hiccup

Makes the earth tough and tumble

Sugar hiccup

Heavens curtsey and bow

Sugar hiccup

Makes a pig soar and swoon

Sugar hiccup

Sugar hiccup or(while) she reels

Sugar hiccup

Sugar hiccup or she reels 

Sugar hiccup



Sugar hiccup, hiccup

Sugar hiccup

Makes the earth tough and tumble

Sugar hiccup



Sugar hiccup or she reels

Sugar hiccup (4x)



Heavens curtsey and bow

Sugar hiccup

Makes a pig soar and swoon

Sugar hiccup



Heavens curtsey and bow

Makes a pig soar and swoon now

Sugar hiccup or she reels

Sugar hiccup, hiccup now

Sugar hiccup, hiccup

Makes the earth tough and tumble

5 Glass Candle Grenades



There's only our hair's breadth between us, obscure as we are

Obscure as we are, there's only our hair's breadth between us

There's only our hair's breadth between us, as sure as we be

As sure as we be, there's only our hair's breadth between us



Glass sandstorms              Still we'll not keel over

Glass candle                  Keel over

Grenades are popping          Keel over



Keel over



6 In The Gold Dust Rush



I weigh my life and it's got me old fool gold



In the gold dust rush I can only genuflect



In the gold dust rush

Honey(her knee) is horrible

In the gold dust rush

There's locusts in(hidden) there

She's got the old fool gold 



I weighed my life and it's got me old fool gold

In the gold dust rush I can only genuflect

I weighed my life and it's got me old fool gold



7 The Tinderbox (of a Heart)



They are beaten

You'd feel danger there



(repeats throughout)

Ruby edged are beaten

You'd feel danger there



How heavy you are and this faded hatch

Tinderbox of a heart left a shell is all



Bleed in your thing's ground ruby edge

It's so bloody and blunt, big crystal eyes

How heavy you are spinning your half

Tinderbox of a heart left a shell is all



8 Multifoiled



No longer multicolours, multifoiled

I'm in multifoils

And time opens wounds, yes

I'm no longer multicolours, I'm just multifoiled



For worth this love for I'm more like plaster

I'm no longer multicoloured, I'm just multifoiled



Ears were filled again

That died of what was sweetest

I'm no longer multicolours, I'm just multifoiled



9 My Love Paramour



Two different fates my love paramour ooze out and away

Two different fates my love paramour ooze out and away

Two different fates they fig up my love ooze out and away



Two different fates

My love paramour

Ooze out and away

Onehow



Love if I swallow for pity must ooze out and away onehow



Love if I swallow for pity must ooze out and away onehow

Two different fates of my love paramour ooze out and away onehow
