Chinese Box Lyrics by The Grinning Plowman

I Play Jupiter

1989

She's smelling oranges now
Collapsed on the floor
Splashing in far pavillons
It's the thought you're thinking
That keeps your eyes from blinking
To sense a thickness starting at the ceiling
Chinese box
Within a box
Within a box
She spits and wrestles
With the voice-of-the-wind
Breathing against no window
It's the thought you're thinking
Sensations of sinking
Into the trickery of art and reason
Chinese box
Within a box
Within a box...
