Speedy Marie — текст песни (Frank Black)

Had a bit part

An endless reel

It always played in slo-mo

But now its fast

A spinning wheel

I know the dynamo

My heart

Is cast



Speedy marie

Ahead of the now

Shes better built thats how

Shes built for speed

Speedy marie

Speedy marie



Oh, yes indeed

I said to me

And so I sing this romaunt

Its not enough

My liberty

There is a thing I want

I need

I love



Speedy marie

Ahead of the now

Shes better built thats how

Shes built for speed

Speedy marie

Speedy marie



Juxtaposed in each moments sight

Everything that I ever saw

And my one delight

Nothing can strike me in such awe

Mouth intricate shapes the voice that speaks

Always it will soothe

Rarer none are the precious cheeks

Is the size of each sculpted tooth

Each lip and each eye



Wise is the tongue, wet of perfect thought

And softest neck where always do i

Lay my clumsy thoughts

She is that most lovely art

Happy are my mind and my soul and my heart
