Guelah Papyrus
Lyrics and Songs by Phish - Go back

Aboard a craft bereft of oar, I rowed upstream to find Lenore

Abducted by a bandit or a king from some forgotten war

And mindful of his larval craze, the rhinotropic micro-gaze

Ignored it and to my amazement rode to Paris in twelve days


This is the work of the guelah papyrus

Stranded for a moment on the ocean of Osyrus

Absorbing all she can for every member of her clan

Expanding exponentially like some recursive virus


She take me on, I never fail to ride on the redundant rail

'Cause when I know she's switched a track there's always one to take me back

And through the bedroom door intrude a fretful frown and spoil the mood

'Cause though I never really stand that tall she tilt my frame, she watch me fall


chorus

*** Instrumental interlude is THE ASSE FESTIVAL ***


So maybe I could be a fly and feed arachnid as I die

And view the ritual from within the silken tunnel that they spin

And through the bedroom door intrude a fretful frown and spoil the mood

'Cause though I never really stand that tall she tilt my frame, she watch me fall


chorus 3x
