sst - jemima coulter lyrics

basically i don’t remember
staring at the switchboard in the house
trying to change the temperature
and since i only have a cold
i should call my dad and go to bed
while dialling in, the numbers start to sway:
“don’t you die before you’re dead.”

i’d know by now
if i leave this house, i’d leave my car
trailing both my hands
‘cos i’m gaunt and cast
with my jawline melting
i’m a new pierrot
swaying on my ladder
and it’s lucid these stories
they’re stories * no endings
all at once i am suspending
belly*lift my standing hands and cool
the fiery eyes that line a cirque
the sultan sings in pink to tame the busters
the ballerina clips below
naked in a haze of stamping dust
glory be the whole d*mn thing

i’d know by now
if i leave this house, i’d leave my car
trailing both my hands
‘cos i’m gaunt and cast
with my jawline melting
i’m a new pierrot
saying “i’m not gonna…”
and it’s lucid these stories
they’re stories * no endings

“sally come home and remember”
they just say
“sally warm up it’s much better”
and say
“sally come home to redeem us *
ballet dancers don’t live in trailers”
and say..
“sally come home to remember”
they just say
“sally come home it’s much better”
and say
