[UnicornisAlba]: 67.Whimsey.Boris

Boris

Spooked be a spider who likes John Coltrane
The mouse on the corner drives the whiskey train
And the monkey views the pair of them with great disdain
Could Boris be my Dorian Grey?
Could Boris be my Dorian Grey?

It’s a jungle out there for arachnid kind
Or maybe the whole thing is only in my mind
the sanity of which is yet to be defined
could Boris be persuaded to stay?
could Boris be persuaded to stay?

High up on a wall would be the safest place
Perhaps you are the Trane himself warped in my space
What message must I pass on to the human race?
Oh Boris please do not go away!
Oh Boris please do not go away!

I’m sorry if I hurt you, I was being rude,
getting up too close people might see as lewd
One thing is for sure, you will not be my food
Oh Boris won’t you come out to play?
Oh Boris won’t you come out to play?

There’s a crow up on the roof makin’ all that noise
He’s shoutin’ to the stars now he’s with the boys
and now he’s got another game for different toys
Oh Boris, please frighten him away!
Oh Boris, please frighten him away!
