lyrics

Beside the animals I'll paint the ocean red,
Top right of canvas, bottom left of christened bed.
"Now paint it blue, the waves are sparkling instead"
Grab a suitcase, love, the summer is dead.

Throw all my ties and shirts and handkerchiefs away,
Your country gentleman is stripped down by your shame.
Tattoo your criticisms on my shoulder blades,
The collar's gone but still the words remain.

I am your fool.

I fell asleep inside the sky and tasted rain
Just like the air beside me perspired, and then
You came around to lift my trophy mounted head
But I was gone on a north westerly wind.
And you ain't every gonna see this face again.

I am your fool.
