Letra de The hissing of summer lawns

He bought her a diamond for her throat
he put her in a ranch house on a hill
she could see the valley barbecues
from her window sill
see the blue pools in the squinting sun
hear the hissing of summer lawns
He put up a barbed wire fence
to keep out the unknown
and on every metal thorn
just a little blood of his own
she patrols that fence of his
to a latin drum
and the hissing of summer lawns
darkness
wonder makes it easy
darkness
with a joyful mask
darkness
tube's gone, darkness, darkness, darkness
no color no contrast
A diamond dog
carrying a cup and a cane
looking through a double glass
looking at too much pride and too much shame
there's a black fly buzzing
there's a heat wave burning in her master's voice
hissing summer lawns
He gave her his darkness to regret
and good reason to quit him
he gave her a roomful of chippendale
that nobody sits in
still she stays with a love of some kind
it's the lady's choice
the hissing of summer lawns
