lirik lagu momus - junk jewelry

i saw her at the theatre, i was standing very near her
she stood there tearing tickets on the door
her face was like a man’s face, there was something strange about her
i saw her legs and wanted to see more

i met her two weeks later and though i was still a stranger
she looked at me as if she thought we’d met
we chatted at the interval and i tried to hide my joy
at her suggestion that i come back to her flat

there were vermin in the dustbin and a sculpture in the stairwell
and the neighbours threw junk jewellery down the well
all the rooms were frozen and the windows had big holes in
through which every type of filthy weather fell

there was something tragic in her and her face was even thinner
than the outline of a slender sickle moon
she put on six red cardigans, two tarnished silver brooches
and an overcoat that looked like a cocoon

she said she’d had a baby she’s taken from a pushchair
she’d hi~jacked in a large department store
she took it and she cared for it and when the baby bored her
she gave it to a friend who was a wh0re

she told me very slowly i could only become holy
if i gave all my accomplices away
she said “if you don’t believe me you can try it and you’ll quickly see
how far you get and find out what they say”
when i kissed her she looked ginger like a pauper at an auction
afraid to move in case she made a bid
she asked me to excuse her and sat down at her computer
and wrote ‘only you can make me truly naked’

she knelt and gave me tenderly the greatest gift of enemies
curious to see if i would come
and when i gave my answer its reticence surprised her
and she formed the words ‘you love me’ with her tongue
