about

A collaboration with The Legendary Pink Dots.

Edward Ka-Spel recorded a truly beautiful new version of this song in 2012; it can be found on the remastered re-release of his solo album "Tanith And The Lion Tree", which you can also find on Bandcamp:

lyrics

don't look 'til it's gone

call it a quirk of human nature...
it's just the way some guys behave
maybe we're all created equal
but oh, that doesn't mean the same...

so look away my fragile pretty, pretty...
i'll draw the curtains on your cage

just think of lilac fields, of daffodils,
of ferris wheels that roll on forever...
oh whatever... don't look 'til it's gone

animals, they're animals...
well if i had a gun i'd... i'd...
nevermind
it's better just to turn the dial
we'll wile away the hours with cartoons
and maybe laugh the way we used to

now... just a smile
my fragile pretty, pretty...
don't you know i'd die for you
but don't look 'til i'm gone
