Phish – Nicu lyrics

1st verse
Appendages flailing running at me, ferocious, tenaciously clawing at me.
The devious gelatin holding me fast, miraculous now you let me ooze past.
Over the wall rushing rivers of sleaze, the tip of stalactites incising my
Knees.
A slipper of sand dollar day at the shore, the next evening at home that I
Dread even more.
Chorus
Would you please make clear to me, I'm peering out through your opacity.
Though you're rehearsed, tomorrow's verse, forgive me if I don't sing your key.
2nd verse
Look back on those days when my life was a haze, gelatin lay on a runcated sleigh.
Copernicus drank from a vessel that stank, from a freemasons cranked to the overflow tank.
Bane of the weasel for biting is fun, jump on the turnstile and watch me go round.
Swim with the cactus and float with the stone, I try to convey what you strive to condone.
Chorus
Would you please make clear to me, I'm peering out through your opacity.
Though you're rehearsed, tomorrows verse, forgive me if I don't sing in your key.
Play it Leo!
Chorus
Would you please make clear to me, I'm peering out through your opacity.
Though you're rehearsed, tomorrows verse, forgive me if I don't sing in your key.
Would you please make clear to me, why nothing is the first thing that I see.
And if you do, nicu, then you will be the nothing left for me.
Would you please make clear to me, why nothing is the first thing that I see.
And if you do, nicu, then you will be the nothing left for me.
