Paroles de « Art Can Wait, The Body Can't »

Verse

Museum opens up at ten.
My hips are hungry now.
Your mouth says wait, my knees say when,
und der Boden sagt: jetzt.

Verse

I have one coffee, she has two.
She puts her heels back on.
The frame is empty on the wall.
We do not hang a thing.

Chorus

Art can wait, the body can't!
Kunst kann warten — Körper nicht!

Verse

Matches sitting on the amp.
Nobody strikes them yet.
She counts the ballroom floorboards out.
Board number four gives way.

Verse

I say we queue, we read the sign.
She says the sign is paper.
Hands go clapping off the beat.
The beat does not complain.

Chorus

Art can wait, the body can't!
Kunst kann warten — Körper nicht!

Verse

Give me ten minutes, let me think.
Zehn Minuten? Nein.
The doors, the tickets, the cloakroom queue—
Mantel aus. Tanz jetzt.

Verse

I typed a manifesto out.
Gib her. Sie reißt es durch.
That was page one of seven.
Seven pages, seven steps.

Chorus

Art can wait, the body can't!
Kunst kann warten — Körper nicht!

Heels. Floor. Sweat. Paper.
Hüfte. Boden. Jetzt.
Heels. Floor. Sweat. Paper.
