A Ghost Before the Wall

She had them big thick lips, like pillows underneath her

cheeks.

When she spoke, an avalanche rolled on them from behind

her teeth

Suddenly, the carpet, was pulled from underneath my feet

When I tried to get close, she just laughed and got

beneath the sheets.

She said "No, no, no – I got to prove you wrong"

She said "No, no, no – I got to prove you wrong"

She had them big almond eyes, that gave her away

And when she started them you could see the tornadoes

play

I had the kind of empty hole, that always made her pay

She had them dancing shoes that never let her stay

She said "No, no, no – I got to prove you wrong"

She said "No, no, no, no, no no – I got to prove you

wrong"

She said "No, no, no, no, no no – I got to prove you

wrong"

She said "No, no, no – I got to prove you wrong"

Suddenly she says – "Here I am, coming back like a ghost

before the wall"
