Ottoman Lyrics


Ottoman couch, how handsome your furniture
Lovelier now but dressed for a funeral
Begging you to sit for a portrait on the wall
To hang in the dark of some parliamentary hall
Elegant clothes, you want to be seen with her
Under your tweeds you sweat like a teenager
Begging you to sit for a portrait on the wall
To hang in the dark of some parliamentary hall
Today is for you
They laid it out for you, for you
There will be six bells a-ringing and white women singing for you
But this feels so unnatural to Peter Gabriel, too
All of the cards and all of the time it took
Soon it's all lines of red in a leather book
Begging you to wait for a minute by the door
Your creeping feet, where they've never been before
Today is for you

They laid it out for you, for you
There will be six bells a-ringing and white women singing for you
But this feels so unnatural Peter Gabriel, too

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Winduptoys started in 1997 as a side project for Robert Boehm (Bo from the band "Clowns Smiling Backwards"), where he could explore his more instrumental / electronic leanings as well as utilising elements from exotica, soundtracks and industrial / DUB.. A year or so later saw Jeremy C. Smith ("Tugboat ", "Wayfaring Strangers", etc) joining him for live performances. This project has since evolved as a duo, utilising both their skills as sound engineers and experimenting with an ever changing abundance of electronics, musical toys, sfx combined with more organic instruments.
