Songtext:
( originally by wire; written by lewis/newman )
No blind spots in the leopard’s eyes
Could ever hope to jeopardize
The lives of lambs
The shepherd cries
An afterlife for a silverfish
Eternal dust, less ticklish
Than a clean room
A houseguest’s wish
(chorus)
He lies on his side
Is he trying to hide
In fact it’s the earth
Which he’s known since birth
Face worker, a serpentine miner
A roof falls, an underliner
Of leaf structure
The egg timer
No blind spots in the leopard’s eyes
Could ever hope to jeopardize
The lives of lambs
The shepherd cries
An afterlife for a silverfish
Eternal dust, less ticklish
Than a clean room
A houseguest’s wish
(chorus)
He lies on his side
Is he trying to hide
In fact it’s the earth
Which he’s known since birth
Face worker, a serpentine miner
A roof falls, an underliner
Of leaf structure
The egg timer
