"The Leopard" lyrics - ROBYN HITCHCOCK AND THE EGYPTIANS
ROBYN HITCHCOCK AND THE EGYPTIANS
"The Leopard"
She walks like a leopard
Her feet padding down down down
With spots on her shadow
That sway as the sun goes round
He lies in the orchard
And gazes into the sun
His body is burning
But not for just anyone
One more animal
One more fox will slip away
You're an animal
Like your father in his day
I watch through the winter
I watch and I go insane
I see the formations
But don't make me look again
One more animal
No one thought would get away
Hear the orchestra
Of the leopard and her prey
