Master Song

I believe that you heard your master sing

When I was sick in bed

I suppose that he told you everything

That I keep locked away in my headYour master took you traveling

Well at least that's what you said

And now do you come back to bring

Your prisoner wine and bread?You met him at some temple

Where they take your clothes at the door

He was just a numberless man in a chair

Who'd just come back from the warAnd you wrap up his tired face in your hair

And he hands you the apple core

Then he touches your lips now so suddenly bare

Of all the kisses we put on some time beforeAnd he gave you a German Shepherd to walk

With a collar of leather and nails

And he never once made you explain or talk

About all of the little detailsSuch as who had a word and who had a rock

And who had you through the mails

Now your love is a secret all over the block

And it never stops not even when your master failsAnd he took you up in his airplane

Which he flew without any hands

And you cruised above the ribbons of rain

That drove the crowd from the standsThen he killed the lights in a lonely lane

And, an ape with angel glands

Erased the final wisps of pain

With the music of rubber bandsAnd now I hear your master sing

You kneel for him to come

His body is a golden string

That your body is hanging fromHis body is a golden string

My body has grown numb

Oh now you hear your master sing

Your shirt is all undoneAnd will you kneel beside this bed

That we polished so long ago

Before your master chose instead

To make my bed of snow?Your eyes are wild and your knuckles are red

And you're speaking far too low

No I can't make out what your master said

Before he made you goThen I think you're playing far too rough

For a lady who's been to the moon

I've lain by this window long enough

To get used to an empty roomAnd your love is some dust in an old man's cough

Who is tapping his foot to a tune

And your thighs are a ruin, you want too much

Let's say, you came back some time too soonI loved your master perfectly

I taught him all that he knew

He was starving in some deep mystery

Like a man who is sure what is trueAnd I sent you to him with my guarantee

I could teach him something new

And I taught him how you would long for me

No matter what he said no matter what you'd doI believe that you heard your master sing

While I was sick in bed

I'm sure that he told you everything

I must keep locked away in my headYour master took you traveling

Well at least that's what you said

And now do you come back to bring

Your prisoner wine and bread?
