Holly Up On Poppy - XTC

Holly up on Poppy

Canter never stop

She has escaped from the world

Where they bake beautiful girls

Holly up on Poppy

Trotting to the top

She talks and banners unfurl

Their secrets crayoned in swirls

Everyday I have to pluck up

Courage to look her in the eyes

The eyes of storms

Anyway I

Love to watch her

Ride and play the alchemy

That love performed

Laughing

Holly up on Poppy

Canter never stop

She has escaped from the world

Where they bake beautiful girls

Every time I

Look at my watch

I’m reminded we are poor

In hours per day

Every second

Spent with her

Is a bulging wallet overstuffed

With angels pay

Laughter!
