A Coral Room
There's a city draped in net, fisherman net And in the half light, in the half light It looks like every tower is covered in webs Moving and glistenin' and rockin' it's babies in rhythm As the spider of time is climbin' over the ruins There were hundreds of people livin' here Sails at the windows and the planes came crashin' down And many a pilot drowned and the speed boats flyin' above Put your hand over the side of the boat and what do you feel? My mother and her little brown jug, it held her milk And now it holds our memories, I can hear her singin' 'Little brown jug, don't I love thee, little brown jug don't I love thee Ho ho ho, hee hee hee, little brown jug, don't I love thee Little brown jug, don't I love thee" I hear her laughin', she is standin' in the kitchen As we come in the back door, see it fall, see it fall Oh, little spider climbin' out of a broken jug And the pieces will lay there a while in a house draped in net In a room filled with coral, sails at the window, forests of masts Put your hand over the side of the boat, put your hand Over the side of the boat and what do you feel?
