Great Dane Songtext
von Cosmo Pyke

"Difficulty however was always a challenge to William
And he wanted Joan back, he liked Joan
She was quiet and shy, and amenable, and dependable
And he was a god in her eyes"

There I lay, beside the Great Dane
A stray in the south, obsessed by your mouth
And you′ve, been away for the fall
I've barely seen you at all
Impressions over you blew like Bikini Atoll

Shallow pain, but it′s not deep down
Cigarettes while you're asleep now
I've taken less care, I feel weak now
You said you was flying to Milan in about a week now


I don′t mind to reignite the fire
Besides from that weed we light
And if you try to ask me why the fact
That I′ve lied and you're tired of that
Well I don′t blame
I only claim to be in a state that closure was the way
She exposed my name
And now I'm supposed to tell you
All them times and in the place but

I′m still developing
Enveloped in the elephant of the room I'm already in
I don′t give a-, it's irrelevant

Been away for the fall
Barely seen you at all
You've come and see me at school
And you′ll realize that I′m no fool

Shallow pain but it's not deep down
Cigarettes while you′re asleep now
When I'm taken less care, I feel weak now
You said you was flying to ja-, in about a-, oh no

But I don′t mind to reignite the fire
Besides from that weed we light
And if you try to ask me why the fact
That I've lied and you′re tired of that
I don't blame, I'm only claim
In a state that closure was the way
She exposed my name and shame now
Times is in their place but


I′m still developing
Enveloped in the elephant of the room I′m already in
I don't give a fuck, it′s irrelevant

Been away for the fall
Barely seen you at all
You come and see me at school
And you'll realize that I′m not

Different girls with the same issues, chains, pearls and tissues
Would you change if I claimed I miss you
Words I love you is misused
A struggle and pissed you, just wanna cuddle and kiss you
Now I'm double muddled and pissed too

New dawn, new day
A reflection of our time, for Pete′s sake
Generations of mobile phones
Even though these girls hormones are most unknown
Implants, at 14, she was lookin fresh apart from her weave
I prefer natural on girls

Even when I think about you now I have to gag and hurl
But not physically
Think about you with another man it sickens me
And I'm sure that you haven't
Even if you have, then I′m sure that I′d have him

I said I'm sure that I′d smack him
Like the end of a party everything stop happenin'
Maybe her brain had mutated
Even though they′re in the past she be sedated but

I don't mind to reignite the fire
Besides from that weed we light
And if you try to ask me why
That I′ve lied and you're tired of that
I don't blame, I only claim to be in a state that closure was the way
She exposed my name and shame
And now I′m supposed to tell you all them times and the place but

I′m still developing
Enveloped in the elephant of the room I'm already in
I don′t give a-, it's irrelevant

"Miss Eveschon was shattered but she made her way to the background
The curtains dividing the platform from a whole were drawn
For no other reason than the Mr. Weastonburry enjoyed drawing them back

The clock struck eight, and Mr. Weastonburry
With his own inimitable air of providing
The most important items of the
Evening′s entertainment, drew them back
Miss Eveschon gave a gasp of horror
For there on the platform was the wooden table

The altar she supposed, and on it was Hector
Her Hector, whom she had left asleep by the fire
Now spirited here by some infernal means and standing motionless
Not moving a muscle or twitching a whisker, hypnotized

And behind the altar was Miss Parend
Looking more witch-like than ever, hatless
Her white hair falling about her face
Wearing a long black coat and leaning on a stick
Then came the culmination of the horror

For the witch hobbled to the edge of the platform
Looked down into the well of the hole
Fixed her dim lit eye on Miss Eveschon
And said in a voice that froze the flattering Miss Eveschon

(And if you try to ask me why)
(That I've lied and you′re tired of that)
(I don't blame)
(I only claim to be in a state that closure was the way of my days)
