You look different every time you come from the foam-crested brine It's your skin shining softly in the moonlight Partly fish, partly porpoise, partly baby s**m whale Am I yours? Are you mine to play with? But joking apart when you're drunk you're terrific When you're drunk I like you mostly late at night - you're quite all right But I can't understand the different you In the morning when it's time to play
At being human for a while Please smile! You'll be different in the spring, I know You're a seasonal beast Like the starfish that drifted with the tide, with the tide So until your blood runs to meet the next full moon Your madness fits in nicely with my own, with my own Your lunacy fits neatly with my own My very own You're not alone You're not alone You aren't alone You're not alone
