Robyn Hitchcock & The Venus 3 - Born on the Wind lyrics

Mira's got a job tonight Keeping someone up Handing them their lemonade In a sharkskin cup Mira wants to leave the crowd Sail to wear things crack Where steam and ice go hand in hand And nobody comes back Born on the wind Born on the wind Mira was an accident That couldn't be reversed ‘Think of how you'd feel' she said ‘If you could feel this cursed I'm going where the streets are seas And down beneath my keel The seaweed flows through the ventilation shafts And that's the way I feel' Born on the wind Born on the wind ‘We live in a p**nocracy' she said ‘Where people fan their flames Desire is your only judge And god has many names One of them is Mr Spinks And one of them is God' Mira fishes from the rocks For the DaVinci cod Born on the wind Born on the wind Born on the wind (FedEx man knocks and enters)
