Robyn Hitchcock - Flesh Cartoons Lyrics

Linda Ryan
In the sky
I've seen her laughing
But I've never seen her cry

She took a fireman
It was a half empty flight
He brought his hose and
Everything just turned out right

I'm just watching

German leather
A German tongue
Lapping pleasure
When he's rubbery and young

He played the oboe
I thought he would
He does it better
Than a guitarist like me could

I'm just watching
Don't mind me
I'm just watching
On my own

Flesh cartoons
Flesh cartoons

Life is easy
Life goes by
Linda Ryan
She's still up there in the sky

Thank you, Linda
She doesn't age
Despite the weather
She looks the same on every page

I'm just watching
Don't mind me
I'm just watching
On my own

I've got no feelings
I've got no friends
I've got insurance
And I despise those who pretend

Life's a movie
Life's a dream
I love you, baby
Things are always what they seem

I'm just watching
Don't mind me
I'm just watching
On my own

Flesh cartoons
