about

Taken from the Songs of Mild Peril series.

Songs of Mild Peril are songs about life not always being as it seems. The flip-side. Literal meanings amidst the ambiguous, abstract, bleak and oblique. Songs about the world and the human condition from the comfort and terror of midlife.


Icy Tongue

He was wondering where it was all going. She wondered where it had all gone...

lyrics

I was born with an icy tongue
A ligature to stem the flow of blood
To my heart

I was born with an ice cube on
A little bruise around the flow of blood
To my heart

I see no love in your eyes
Your heart has been cauterised

I was born with an ice cold one
A little prick to ease the flow of blood
To my heart

I see no love in your eyes
Your heart has been cauterised

Life goes on going around
Everyone’s up when you’re down
Life moves on going around
Everything’s up in this town
And you know it’s good
And you know it’s fine
And you know I get serious
I can’t help it if life moves on
I can’t help it if life moves on
I can’t help it if life moves on
I can’t help it if life moves on
I can’t help it

I was born with an icy tongue
A ligature to stem the flow of blood
To my heart

I see no love in your eyes
Your heart has been cauterised
I see no love in your eyes
Your heart has been cauterised
