Kate Bush Coffee Homeground

Tekst piosenki

Down in the cellar
You’re getting into making poison
You slipped some on the side
Into my glass of wine
And I don’t want any coffee homeground

Offer me a chocolate
No thank you, spoil my diet, know your game!
But tell me just how come
They smell of bitter almonds?
It’s a no-no to your coffee homeground

Pictures of Crippin’
Lipstick-smeared
Torn wallpaper
Have the walls got ears here?

[Chorus]
Well, you won’t get me with your Belladonna, in the coffee
And you won’t get me with your arsenic, in the pot of tea
And you won’t get me in a hole to rot, with your hemlock
On the rocks

Where are the plumbers
Who went a-missing here on Monday?
There was a tall man
With his companion
And I bet you gave them coffee, homeground

Maybe you’re lonely
And only want a little company
But keep your recipes
For the rats to eat
And may they rest in peace with coffee homeground

[Chorus: x2]

With your hemlock on the rocks
„Noch ein Glas, mein Liebchen?”*
With your hemlock on the rocks
„Es schmeckt wunderbahr!”*
With your hemlock on the rocks
„Und ?”
