Geballe/Willcox) Well it's like this Hamlet said "Get thee to a nunnery, go, farewell, or it thou will't needs marry, marry A fool; for wise men know well enough what monsters you make of them. God Has given you one face and you make yourselves another. You jig, you amble And you lisp and nickname God's creatures and make your wantonness your Ignorance. Go to: I'll no more on't: it hath made me mad. To a nunnery go" (drink me) To which Ophelia answered "Oh what a noble mind is here o'erthrown" There's this woman From the land beyond the shore line The woman who had an affair Cos her man's attentions were somewhere else In the clouds It all began with her image She thought there was room to improve To win the admiration Of his wandering attentions Instead she discovered part of herself she never knew of The waves come The effect that followed Was like being thrown into the Hawaii surf Oh the glory in the liking of herself
She was her own secret admirer She gives herself gifts Giving perpetuates And this person is Truly and faithfully hers alone Roll over my feet Every time she sees her glowing reflections She's reminded of true devotion But when a golden boy caught her eye Jealously she felt from within Instead of flirting with she ignored him I descend the shore She explores She goes forward And tries new ways And when she's had enough She tries new tastes And if things get stale With gentle consideration She spits it all away She's there She cares While down in the gutter pitter patter piss bile and ale There's this woman On the land beyond the shoreline The woman who had an affair with herself Cos her man's attentions were somewhere else In the clouds While she was being thrown into the Hawaii surf Hawaii surf Hawaii surf Hawaii surf And the waves drink me
