Poor Things Lyrics

Poor things moving from the bedroom to the kitchen through

the cold hallway. Brief excursions from the bed, she said,

"I slept today. I didn't dream. I slept today. I didn't dream."

Quater past, and from the ladder,

"i.." Twilight on midnight and here again.

"When after all, who now believes..."

"When after all who now? Hey-hey, I slept today, I didn't

dream, I heard cars pass by. The ordinary kept me in bed."

The telephone rings.

"hey?"

"hey"

ordinary. Windswept streets and curling leaves,

"leaves less than to be desired."

They curl between the nethers and...

"Shed your..." Straighten. Swallow. Stand.

"Somewhere I hear..."

"Hey-hey!"

The neighbores come through the wall.

The closing of the downstairs door.
