Caterpillar Lyrics

Caterpillar lyrics

I have walked your sorry streets

Lived amongst your people

And I'm sure we must have heard

The same birds singing



You have stepped in hardened footprints

Up where my shoes were mudded

And I know we must have heard

The same dogs barking



The ground was rumbling

And the bathroom walls were bending

I lay there wet and naked

Oh, I know you heard me yelling



Out a name that you never used for me, till then

Out a name that you never used for me, till then

Out a name that you never used



I have shat on the hillside

Neck deep in cushion clover

Up where I'm sure you've braided

Those necklaces and bracelets



You have lost your socks and panties

Out by the caterpillar

That grades the road I walk on

While I'm dreading English



The ground was shaking

And the jewel tea was a falling

There's a cracking in your kitchen

Oh, I know you heard me calling



Out a name that I never used for you, till then

Out a name that I never used for you, till then

Out a name that I never used
