Robert Wyatt
Bigger Flames
[Verse 1]
Orange head secretes a lie above you
Sentencing the lacquered sky above you

[Verse 2]
Reflected in your stretched out hand in hand
Trees-to-logs cartwheel and die above you

[Verse 3]
Fluster of sailboats chop half-speed upon
Rose leather ocean, fake dry, above you

[Verse 4]
A coy curtsying earthquake kneels the ground
Yo-yo-ing trees liquefy above you

[Verse 5]
Well, now it's your house, set neatly on fire
Its blistering heart bloats high above you

[Verse 6]
Atrophied crucibles, charrеd Russian dolls
A necklace of flames comply abovе you

[Verse 7]
Politely uproot the moon-trampled sea
A starlit sigh, sewn awry, above you
