Great Display of Patience

Shandies pour in the river towns To cleanse your body when you're down But my fur coat fans are in dismay I pen pal poke them every day But the helmet crushed my real desire To be on wheels and move, move, move Into a galaxy of summer's mould Congratulate me when I've sold out My bank account has eyes and thoughts It's got sex appeal and files reports It's holding close and changing hands It does this sneaky while it can But shells wash up on ancient shores And curve their math beneath your doors Into your sheets and skin our gold And I'm just doing what I'm told And you're mine now, you're mine now Oh, and I waited a long time Waited a long time, waited a long time But you're mine, mine, mine, oh And I'll damn you if this paper trail Consumes my boots and pulls my tail 'Cause I'm an upset dog, a fresh neglect The weeks keep clicking by unchecked And the ocean swells and fills the room A somersault inside a womb And she's mine now, you're mine now Oh, and I waited a long time Waited a long time, waited a long time But you're mine, mine, mine, oh Oh, and I waited a long time Waited a long time, waited a long time But you're mine, mine, mine, oh
