lyrics

Cowness hasn't gone
Buffaloness intervened
We're in the falling fog of the afterdream
It's more mud, more crocodiles
Hemmed in cheek by jowl
Down in the gumbo of the underground

As the cauldron slowly boils
We're bubbles in the gloop
The night was black as oil when I fell in love with you
So young and openminded
Outlook so unclouded

Come on in you might as well
The water's warm in soft hell

Exit to street level down a river of tar
There's an angel and a devil inside everybody's heart
And God's away on business and he left no one in charge
I reach your building and I buzz your bell
You let me in and that familiar smell
Of cooking in the corridors
And the sound of the neighbour's muted yells

Come on in you might as well
The water's warm in soft hell

Strap yourself in
We'll be here for a while
Down in here in soft hell.
