Big Blue Car - Pride (Of a Pantomime Cow)

Here she comes
Steaming in to raise my roof
I never thought she could
I didn’t think she would
Here she comes
Less golden calf, more Friesian cow
The fact that you’ve gone far
Makes you less then you are
Over here, Duchess!
Over here, Duchess!
Over here, Duchess!
Over here, Duchess!
Here she come
A tree of bones, a skin of leaves
And all you say and do
Speaks only of you
Here she is
A pin and tuck, an ugly wonder
Look at what she’s done
Look at what she’s become
As she wanders through me
A penny drops to the road
But all I can hear is the mission bell
And it’s crashing
So many flies swarm to you
You’re grabbed by crushing bores
Who think that they love you
And I sense the strings
That make you walk this way
Pride. Open this door and take to me
Pride. I gave my life to you (sad days and glory)
There she goes
A plaster cast of a sad old cow
I feel so sorry for you
But what can I do?
As this trail of flies collide close behind her
I make the break like a mission bell
Crying all alone
I bet that’s what you do don’t you?
Miming to others’ songs
They buried your sentiment from you
And I never dreamt you could be so frail
Pride. Take hold this note I bring to you
Pride. Understand that I know what haunts you
Pride. Turn this way and speak to me
Pride. Let me touch the hand that paints those stories
