Flashflood

(álbum: Benefactor - 1982)

The puddle in the apartment
The puddle in the market
I don't notice
I slip through
Windows of glass, windowpane of sand
I don't notice
I slip through

Your green-tooled carpet
The weight of your footsteps
You gave out your number
Someone drowns
In your flashflood

You used to smile when I walked in the door
You used to smile
Not anymore

I wanna be quiet
Not talk, just listen
What you're saying
It makes a difference
A plate glass window
Your bulk in shadow
Even the lamp's broke
Cat's in the fishbowl
Your landmark of anger
Your den of revenge
You gave out your number
Someone drowns
In your flashflood

You used to smile when I walked in the door
You used to smile
Not anymore

Your landmark of anger
Your den of revenge
You gave out your number
Someone drowns

Flashflood
You used to smile when I walked in the door
You used to smile
Not anymore

You're a difficult child
You don't understand
What I'm looking for
Another man

You're a difficult child
You don't understand
What I'm looking for
Another man

You used to smile when I walked in the door
Not anymore
