Bacchus and the Ivy (Lyric) by <{Baba^Yaga}> I heard they left you at the tar-pits
Just another wounded troglodyte
Mother said she had high wishes
For your seed, and why it might
Story was immaculate conception
I guess your blood is wiser than
A box of grapefruit with no sugar
My broken Uncle, and his gin
Because you are the citrus
I am the ivy
I bend as the willow
You snap like an oaktree
You are the saltweed
I am the grape vine of pure misery
You are the citrus
I am the ivy
They said you gave up on the long dance
and that your song had gone a-stray
Now you're selling empty soup cans
and saying everything's okay?
A pack of dogs has found your shadow
that's why you cannot tie your shoes
The fear of no teeth is sheer terror
and why you must protect your muse
Because you are the citrus
I am the ivy
I bend as the willow
You snap like an oaktree
You are the saltweed
I am the grape vine of pure misery
You are the citrus
I am the ivy
Out through the storm waves
Under the new moon
Bled by an old thorn
I wish i could love you

I bet you're wondering how I knew about your plans to make me blue with some other guy that you knew before. Between the two of us guys you know I love you more. It took me by surprise, I must say, when I found out yesterday.

wrong vine, sirrah. but then, when even the walls have ears, who's to say the ivy doesn't?
cool.
do you actually know dark angel? (or baccus for that matter?!)
i know bachus, but i don't know dark angel, ah..not in the physical sense (d.a that is) i have read all of his writings, and i've had some interesting comment battles that is with him...um i was sort of obsessed by a notion ABOUT HIM, for awhile, but i'm over that now...i enjoy his work very much and count him as a peer though. i believe him to be quite the philosopher and scholar. like myself. occasionally.
on the other hand, i do know bachus alot, and horus8 a little.
horus8 is cool there seems to be a group of u over there and one of us over here!
the group is small and tight like a pigeons scrotum.
that is certainly a lovely visual way of putting it
i see what u mean i rather like dark angel myself he is very elusive and seems to be above everyone else
I like this alot especially the chorus, but you knew that already. The song is quite nice. Hmmmmmm....someone gave you a one...shame really....here's a 9.
"and why it might"?
Has a good lyric sense to it, but it feels like too much nonsense, too. A touch of bob dylan, a touch of the beatles, and other things I recognize but can't name--but I think more it winds up just "touched". Then again, 6am, I might be reading too much or too little... In the end, I enjoyed it, and that's always a plus. 491 view(s)
