Meet You At the Revolt

from Sceptre by Laurie Shaw

/

lyrics

Sweet sleep, I barely dreamed we speak privately too
And as the rust embalmed the bust of a steel replica you
And if I could meet you at the revolt you know I would
But I’m in Tuvalu
And the hula dancers glance me two by two

Having a shadowbox in the hollyhox
A Loch Ness Monster guards Fort Knox
You checked the locks and tore off your frock
Epoxy resin Ultravox
I want to be in your party of friends
I don’t want to be your golden thread
And every time you talk your life around the bend
I want to be your godsend

Sweet sleep, I barely dreamed we speak privately as well
And as the rust embalmed the bust of you
I nearly fell into the third circle of hell
And if I could meet you at the revolt you know I would
But I’m in Tuvalu
And the hula dancers greet me one and two
