Walls of the Fort Lyrics
[1st Verse]
Out the front hall I creep like a cat
I leave the door crack
and squeeze like a rat
Down the hill I abscond from my throne
this landscape that I roams illuminated bichrome
Guided by the aura of the moon
I climb the palace stepstone to my uncertain doom
And I know she’ll take me over alone
and drift out into the night like the calls of a loon
[Chorus]
Well I hardly ever know which way to begin
When I’m stuck at a place between good deed and sin
Said I’m in second place in a race I can’t win
I’m a fish with no fins
she’s a shark and I can’t swim
No I can’t swim
[sax solo]
[guitar solo]
[2nd Verse]
I’ll scale like a snail
The walls of the fort
Where the peasants at the gate celebrate and cavort
The drawbridge
Falls down to the floor
And before I could say more she summons me to the door
She takes from me
My coat and my hat
you know we exchange some words and laugh
She takes a seat on my lap
Lovin’ begins
As quickly as it ends
And then I’m out ‘otto spin
I’m out on the road again
[Chorus]
Well I hardly ever know which way to begin
When I’m stuck at a place between good deed and sin
Said I’m in second place in a race I can’t win
I’m a fish with no fins
she’s a shark and I can’t swim
