A Coral Room

	There's a city, draped in net
	Fisherman net
	And in the half light, in the half light
	It looks like every tower
	Is covered in webs
	Moving and glistening and rocking
	It's babies in rhythm
	As the spider of time is climbing
	Over the ruins

	There were hundreds of people living here
	Sails at the windows
	And the planes came crashing down
	And many a pilot drowned
	And the speed boats flying above
	Put your hand over the side of the boat
	What do you feel?

	My mother and her little brown jug
	It held her milk
	And now it holds our memories
	I can hear her singing
	"Little brown jug don't I love thee"
	"Little brown jug don't I love thee"
	Ho ho ho, hee hee hee

	I hear her laughing
	She is standing in the kitchen
	As we come in the back door
	See it fall
	See it fall
	Oh little spider climbing out of a broken jug
	And the pieces will lay there a while
	In a house draped in net
	In a room filled with coral
	Sails at the window
	Forests of masts
	Put your hand over the side of the boat
	Put your hand over the side of the boat
	What do you feel?
