Animal X

There was a girl, call her Animal X\n22, 24, 25 it’s hard to tell\nIt’s hard to tell\nShe comes from the city where there is light and air\nWhere you can watch television\nWhere you can go to the movies\nAnd read books just for the joy of it\nShe went out walking\nShe’s drawn along by a kind of humming, a kind of prayer\nShe winds up down on the waterfront, out on the boom docks\nOut on the boom docks\nYeah and at the gates she meets a boy\nAnimal Y, 22, 24, it’s hard to tell\nIt’s hard to tell, I mean I never really can tell\nBut he wasn’t her type\nHe was a different kind, but they were built for each other\nBit by bit, and piece by piece they were built for each other\nBy some cosmic hand just for the joy of it\nDown in the boom docs\nDown in the waterfront\nAnd he calls out something in a language she doesn’t understand\nAnd he calls out something in a language she doesn’t understand\nAnd she put her hand on his stomach just for the joy of it\nBut his stomach was where his head was\nAnd she put her hand on his head just for the joy of it\nBut his head was where his feet were\nAnd she put her hand on his heart,\nRight there on his heart, just for the joy of it\nBut his heart was lying down on the road\nAnd Animal X says to Animal Y:\nThey can build their gods way up high\nThey can build their gods, but they don’t own the sky\nSays animal X to animal Y\nThey can build their gods way uṗ high\nAnd I’ll lay right down beside you\nBe a bride of Frankenstein\nHe was a head with no heart\nHe was an arm with no hand\nHe was a leg with no feet\nHe was a head with no heart\nShe was a head with no heart\nShe was an arm with no hand\nShe was a leg with no feet\nShe was a head with no heart\nYeah, 501s, 511s, 603s it’s hard to tell\nIt’s hard to tell\nYeah but she sure looked good going down the waterfront\nYeah but she sure looked good going down the wood docks
