Backwaters

[00:13.55] Sun so high
[00:15.38] Water hole's dry
[00:16.29] I wanna give up
[00:18.05] But I don't know why
[00:20.74] Sun so hot that meat cooks
[00:22.64] In the shade
[00:27.14] Saw a lemming
[00:28.94] It was choking on death
[00:30.78] It's mother'd kicked
[00:31.64] And broken its neck
[00:33.42] I've never seen blood or milk
[00:36.18] Mix so divine
[00:40.62] I've never seen such beauty
[00:43.32] So maligned
[01:03.14] Brother said
[01:04.96] "Brother never done me good"
[01:06.77] Nodding a face
[01:07.69] Full of campfire soot
[01:09.49] Been burning
[01:10.32] Up our coals
[01:12.12] Sting like a bitch
[01:16.78] I catch a lift
[01:18.58] On the last bus home
[01:20.30] To the end of the line
[01:21.21] For what coppers I own
[01:23.06] I get thrown off, hit on, beat up,
[01:26.63] Before I drown
[01:31.16] In the murky backwaters
[01:32.92] I'll lay my body down
[01:53.75] Fifty stars above my head, and
[01:56.45] Thirteen scars run through my chest
[01:59.18] Blue and red blood
[02:01.87] Become my veins
[02:07.26] Blackened eyes
[02:09.07] And a purple nose
[02:09.97] I've got missing teeth
[02:11.72] Got a lot of those
[02:12.61] Oh, Marigold
[02:15.35] You've never done me no harm
[02:19.84] Marigold, in debt to you
[02:23.48] Don't ever wanna say
[02:24.35] The things I've thought of you
[02:26.19] Marigold, I wrote you
[02:28.83] A love song
[02:32.48]
