We put a cloth on a bird's cage
to make him sleep away his agitation
I think that's what we did, you and I
mine looked so pretty on the shelf
a lovely cloth for polishing the bars
the satin strokes my legs, I feel sick
when I turn it's slow to catch up
or maybe that's the lead inside my limbs
why am I so tired and slow?
shelved
I have this cloth, I tell you
it looks so pretty on the shelf.
what can you make from it?
suddenly a light is on
and you are twirling in a dance
a lantern in a lovely shade, lighting up the room
