lyrics

(a menu and a photo)

Eleven years of drafting and the finest thing I wrote
Is held to a fridge door with a magnet shaped like a lemon
Between a takeaway menu and her nephew at a christening
And every person who comes in this flat reads it

Between a menu and a photo (a photo)
That is where it lives, a photo
Publicly, a photo
A photo

A menu and a photo, photo, a menu and a photo
The most naked thing I have ever written is a fridge item
A menu and a photo, photo, a menu and a photo
And she will not take it down and I have stopped asking

My mother visited in April. Read the whole thing standing up.
Both pages. Did not say a word about it. Not one word.
And on the way out she touched the corner of it. That is my mother's entire language.
(bass returns)

A menu and a photo, photo, a menu and a photo
The most naked thing I have ever written is a fridge item
A menu and a photo, photo, a menu and a photo
And she will not take it down and I have stopped asking

(touched the corner...)
