lyrics

Run your foot along
My spiny dorsal fin
But be careful I don’t burst the bubble you are in

Let us run amock
Mess up your tidy smock
We’ll make mischief: misinform the mollusc and his flock

Sit with me in throne
The coral’s just been mown
So we can see, in brevity, the empire that we own

Never take a name.
You know that they’re not yours
You won’t be able to take a label until you close your jaws

Take a memory for
Every bone you floor
Put it in your pocket (lock it) – I will beg for more

The garden's just beyond
Pick a fragrant frond

Love, beware my thorns
Piercing you soft skin
You’ve been bleeding since I burst
The bubble you were in

Can you learn to swim?
You can hardly paddle – better straddle
my spiny dorsal fin
