Lyrics

Bronze coins showing genitals
lay in salacious half-sleep
sucked and spat out by the
spoiled mouth of years

coyote and priests beckon from
disc to disc in erect carnival
frozen at the moment of nervous becoming

smooth as toffee

the jackass dowry dances forever
across their tableland

[transcribed by Brian Caughell]
