lyrics

He gives hugs
and smiles to his countrymen
as they board his sinking skiff
and he does it all so carefully
that their feet never get wet
and his tongue is tight
with all of them
and knows all the words they like
and he always checks the temperature
before he goes outside.
He's a strange, strange bird.
And his mistress
kisses cabinetry,
and she keeps a tidy home.
And she spends her time so comfortably,
waiting by the the phone.
but he always listened carelessly
to the mournful tune she hummed.
and now he keeps her company
in a suitcase in her trunk.
It's a strange, strange world.
