Curse
When I arrived, all your bottles
Had water in them to their waists
And all the pills inside them floated
Like so much well intentioned waste
That night I left the kettle on
Left the house, left the water
It boiled over, left a burn
A call heard by your doting daughter
When I arrived, she had counted
All the things that you'd done wrong
And she a sharp and marvellous weapon
Left you only two days strong
That night I left the tub filling
Left the house, left it running
The neighbours saw a waterfall
Patched it with their youthful cunning
When I arrived, you were waiting
In a kind of arrogance
With your hands folded
Round the last of that romance, its thrust, its dance
That night I left the candle burning
Left the fire, left it smokin'
Nothing left of mold or mud
And only one of us is broken
Had water in them to their waists
And all the pills inside them floated
Like so much well intentioned waste
That night I left the kettle on
Left the house, left the water
It boiled over, left a burn
A call heard by your doting daughter
When I arrived, she had counted
All the things that you'd done wrong
And she a sharp and marvellous weapon
Left you only two days strong
That night I left the tub filling
Left the house, left it running
The neighbours saw a waterfall
Patched it with their youthful cunning
When I arrived, you were waiting
In a kind of arrogance
With your hands folded
Round the last of that romance, its thrust, its dance
That night I left the candle burning
Left the fire, left it smokin'
Nothing left of mold or mud
And only one of us is broken
