Escalator Over the Hill
Cecil Clark:
People who never
Tell anyone anything
Always
Just letting them know
Flooding memory with pumps
Talented teams of onions
Inside the goal
Of the mouth
Itself
Roomer:
Escalator over the hill
Operasinger:
Thickening old hotel
Doubletalk with single
Entendre
The giggling fly
Of a flashing
Pajama
Longed for pleasure
Lost forever
To a flashing
That insists
On a new
Yodelling
Ventriloquist
Men:
Escalator over the hill
Again no choice
For the poor pale house
Ancient Roomer:
Riding uneasily
Cecil Clark/Operasinger:
Over the hill
Over the hill
Over the hill
Direct pulse
Passes by
Darts in limiting
The system
All green within
All pale with go
A whistling echo
All for fun
From Sinclair's
Blue magic gun
Hotelpeople:
Escalator over the hill
Again no choice
For the poor pale house
Riding uneasily
Over the hill
Over the hill
Over the hill
