Lucette Stranded On the Island
I call my name aloud
Looking for what I remember
My name I know
I love going to the movies
I turn and see my childhood home
On this new beach
Where strange birds fly
These birds swoop right over looking out for me
"Who is she?"
"Where does she come from?"
The building disappears
Oh, she's been marooned
Can anybody help her?
Oh, she's been marooned
Can anybody help her?
Oh, she's been marooned
Can anybody help her?
The sun comes up
Slower than I remember
A man I know
He lights his cigarette with nothing
Not a smile or memory
His shadow still wet as my gash against the rock
Sharp and high on the Balearic promontory I see his ship go
What stings me?
These birds can't stop the waves
Oh, she's been marooned
Can anybody help her?
Oh, she's been marooned
Can anybody help her?
(The birds can sing a song)
He covered me in cactus
(The birds can sing a song)
I don't remember much but
(The birds can sing a song)
Good riddance he is gone
(The birds can sing a song)
He put me ashore
(The birds can sing a song)
At 4 a.m.
(The birds can sing a song)
The man is gone
(The birds can sing a song)
The man is gone
(The birds can sing a song)
Good riddance he is gone
(The birds can sing a song)
His bill caught their eyes
(The birds can sing a song)
Blood is on his bill
(The birds can sing a song)
His bill caught my neck
(The birds can sing a song)
How unnaturally I gaze
(The birds can sing a song)
How unnatural I gaze
(The birds can sing a song)
I don't remember much but
(The birds can sing a song)
He turned me around
(The birds can sing a song)
My mouth quivered
(The birds can sing a song)
Perpetually alarmed
(The birds can sing a song)
I gaze at nothing
(The birds can sing a song)
I gaze at nothing
(The birds can sing a song)
My emerald is gone
(The birds can sing a song)
He lifts my hand
(The birds can sing a song)
He lift my hand
(The birds can sing a song)
I hear him
(The birds can sing a song)
I hear him
Oh, na-na-na-na-na
I don't remember much but
Oh, she's been marooned
Can anybody help her?
Looking for what I remember
My name I know
I love going to the movies
I turn and see my childhood home
On this new beach
Where strange birds fly
These birds swoop right over looking out for me
"Who is she?"
"Where does she come from?"
The building disappears
Oh, she's been marooned
Can anybody help her?
Oh, she's been marooned
Can anybody help her?
Oh, she's been marooned
Can anybody help her?

Oh, she's been marooned
Can anybody help her?
Oh, she's been marooned
Can anybody help her?
