Lizard Album Lyrics

Indoor Games
  • (Fripp/Sinfield)
  • Indoor fireworks amuse your kitchen staff
  • Dusting plastic garlic plants
  • They snigger in the draught
  • When you ride through the parlour
  • Wearing nothing but your armour-
  • Playing Indoor Games.
  • One string puppet shows amuse
  • Your sycophantic friends
  • Who cheer your rancid recipes
  • In fear they might offend,
  • Whilst you loaf on your sofa
  • Sporting falsies and a toga-
  • Playing Indoor Games, Indoor Games.
  • Your mean teetotum spins arouse your seventh wife
  • Who pats her sixty little skins
  • And reinsures your life,
  • Whilst you sulk in your sauna
  • 'Cos you lost your jigsaw corner-
  • Playing Indoor Games, Indoor Games.
  • Each afternoon you train baboons to sing
  • Or swim in purple perspex water wings.
  • Come Saturday jump hopper, chelsea brigade,
  • High bender-trender it's all Indoor Games.
  • No ball bagatelle incites
  • Your children to conspire,
  • They slide across your frying pan
  • And fertilize your fire;
  • Still you and Jones go madder
  • Broken bones-broken ladder-
  • Hey Ho...


Happy Family
  • (Fripp/Sinfield)
  • Happy family, one hand clap, four went by and none come back.
  • Brother Judas, ash and sack, swallowed aphrodisiac.
  • Rufus, Silas, Jonah too sang, "We'll blow our own canoes,"
  • Poked a finger in the zoo, punctured all the ballyhoo
  • Whipped the world and beat the clock, wound up with their share of stock.
  • Silver Rolls from golden rock, shaken by a knock, knock, knock.
  • Happy family, wave that grin, what goes round must surely spin;
  • Cheesecake, mousetrap, Grip-Pipe-Thynne cried out, "We're not Rin Tin Tin."
  • Uncle Rufus grew his nose, threw away his circus clothes
  • Cousin Silas grew a beard, drew another flask of weird
  • Nasty Jonah grew a wife, Judas drew his pruning knife.
  • Happy family one hand clap, four went on but none came back
  • Happy family, pale applause, each to his revolving doors.
  • Silas searching, Rufus neat, Jonah caustic, Jude so sweet.
  • Let their sergeant mirror spin if we lose the barbers win;
  • Happy family one hand clap, four went on but none came back


Lady Of The Dancing Water
  • (Fripp/Sinfield)
  • Grass in your hair stretched like a lion in the sun
  • Restlessly turned moistened your mouth with your tongue.
  • Pouring my wine in your eyes caged mine glowing
  • Touching your face my fingers strayed knowing.
  • I called you lady of the dancing water.
  • Blown autumn leaves shed to the fire where you laid me
  • Burn slow to ash just as my days now seem to be.
  • I feel you still always your eyes glowing
  • Remembered hours salt, earth and flowers flowing
  • Farewell my lady of the dancing water.
