Wife You Lyrics

With her bent back over the railing
Hair falling towards the night-black water
Hairpins falling like harpoons
Sharp enough to fell a (white whale)

Flock of wild parrots scream
From my boyhood to her girlhood dreams

Black diamonds and pearls
At the bottom of the sound
I feel unsteady, like my love

Flock of wild parrots scream
From my boyhood to her girlhood dreams

I want my thoughts to ring throughout your body
I want my violence to make you satisfied
On your skin the broken memories of my mouth
A bruise-colored wedding gown
