Scott Walker - Tar Lyrics



Scott Walker - Tar Lyrics




Flat nose whistle
goes up ahead.

Up ahead

on the El Greco
grunt-

God creates man
and then animals.

Bilge!

God creates animals
and then man.

Jackaroo
in the slew.

-let its tinnitustic needles
sew back shadow.


She holds a baby
made of towels
up ahead.

Up ahead

on the
baleen
bronchial-

Jacob's offspring
in Egypt totalled
seventy.

Hogwash!

Jacob's offspring
in Egypt totalled
seventy five.

Contritio/Attritio.

-let the leashes strain
sustain those
jaw-joints surging.


Aw-shucks.
Aw-Gee.

The Porter sticks
with the
Porter's dreams.

(Shoot to a wing-tip pawing the ground.)

I wouldn't trust him not to dance
a drachma across his knuckles.


Twenty-seven inches from heel to heel-

Lardie, Lardie, Lardie.

-while every skin is raised.
While every eye was grazed.

Thrushy-tongue
lolling
up ahead.

Up ahead

on the
sarcomere
stump-

The women
came to the tomb
at dawn.

Booty chatter!

The women came
when the sun
had risen.

Laps/Relapse.

-let this throat's
Colombian Necktie-
choke that Franglais.


Flat nose whistle
goes up ahead.

Up ahead

on the
Pilates punk.

The righteous
shall flourish
like a palm tree.

GTFO!

The righteous
shall perish
and no man
layeth it to heart.

I swerved
away
into the dark.

Forty-five inches
from heel to heel...

Forty-five inches
from heel to heel...

Forty-five inches
from heel to heel...

There
but for
the grace
of god
goes
God.
