Meet me by the water, little lady in the moon Once inside a coffer, he found a silver spoon And once the wee hour tolls and the spring turns blue I'll meet you by the smokestack and we'll dance in boiler room You named your baby Marigold, and she lost all of her hair You used her bones and muscles to build your grandfather a chair Way down in the cellar you mourned her darling face But when inside his study you stayed far out of his way Meet me by the muse I know your soft oriole crest is feeling overused Meet me by the muse When I start to feel a little gentle I will pull your wisdom tooth And nobody will be waiting to watch you That dirty old mattress that drove a wire deep inside Your chest is growing dark and your bosom friend has gone and died Call into the darkness, out yonder by the trees where you fell A shudder and a whisper carried by the breeze and you felt Jack o lanterns landing on a lawn with green lavenders Instruments-a-blowing in directions you have never heard Calling in the corner of the cabin that you cried on In shadows obscured by cornstalks and chalks around her body figurine I can't help but think of the things that you ain't never seen Meet me by the muse I know your supple hands are feeling a bit over bruised Meet me by the muse When I start to feel gentle I'll put a tongue into your room And nobody will be waiting to watch you, while I am watching you Meet me by the water, baby darling in the moon Once inside my kettlepot he sang a silent tune And once the quiet hour turns to midnight on the bells He'll close his cloudy eyes to the shadows of a living hell Meet me by the muse The music that made your maiden scream And bury her shoes, pigeon toed in the dirt where The devil came to punish her for giving up her youth A shadow left behind, under the light, under the moon
