Open Wide

He's on the wall The god that you love The curtain's halfway drawn Who's out there? The lighter on the bed The petrol in your hand The fire at your door Still hungry What's your favourite game to play Lying on your back all day? We can't run Step outside and watch it burn Stupid thing Open wide and let them in The flannel on the floor The purple round your mouth You watched it till it's old And shining I watched you from the bed Putting on your face A child in a mask A child What's your favourite game to play Lying on your back all day?
