I Must Prepare (Tablecloth Tint) - Silkworm

Crabs fight for a peek

Windows clouded with algae

There is a passionate tint to the tablecloth

The total effect is one of liberation

Open wide

No one else will taste this wriggling tongue

I know I’m pinned

Your blue blood keeps me in

One more body is heavy

And I must prepare

I want to wish you well

Everything is better now

Can’t you tell

It’s unavoidable

I let the door hit my ass on the way out

And I can see a sign flashing on the shoulder

Men at work

The sun warms skin that it sometimes burns away

It takes the light of day to see

You can’t be tamed

Some day soon you will be free again

To roam the streets

Looking for love from everyone you meet

And I must prepare
