Kate Bush - Coffee Homeground
Down in the cellar
You’re getting into making poison.
You slipped some on the side,
Into my glass of wine,
And I don’t want any coffee--homeground.
Offer me a chocolate,
No thank you, spoil my diet, know your game!
But tell me just how come
They smell of bitter almonds?
It’s a no-no to your coffee homeground.
Pictures of crippin
Lipstick-smeared.
Torn wallpaper.
Have the walls got ears here?
Well, you won’t get me with your belladonna--in the coffee,
And you won’t get me with your aresenic--in the pot of tea,
And you won’t get me in a hole to rot--with your hemlock
On the rocks.
Where are the plumbers
Who went a-missing here on monday?
There was a tall man
With his companion,
And I bet you gave them coffee--homeground.
Maybe you’re lonely,
And only want a little company,
But keep your recipes
For the rats to eat,
And may they rest in peace with coffee homeground.
Well, you won’t get me with your belladonna--in the coffee,
And you won’t get me with your aresenic--in the pot of tea,
And you won’t put me in a six-foot plot--with your hemlock
On the rocks.
You won’t get me with your belladonna--in the coffee,
And you won’t get me with your aresenic--in the pot of tea,
And you won’t get me in a hole to rot--with your hemlock
On the rocks.
With your hemlock on the rocks.
Noch ein glas, mein liebchen? *
With your hemlock on the rocks.
Es schmeckt wunderbahr!*
With your hemlock on the rocks.
