THUNDER IN MY TEETH
1996 L. Fiorentino

Sometimes you see me and I’m standing
Just like a statue I get no relief
I get these rainbows in my ribs and thunder in my teeth
Yes I’m standing just like a statue I get no relief
With all these rainbows in my ribs and thunder in my teeth

I am perfectly smooth alabaster I
talian Marble as cool as the sea
And when I see you sitting there with your heart on fire
You begin to look a little bit like me
Sitting there just like a statue.
You get no relief,
do you?
With all those rainbows in your ribs and thunder in your teeth

Feels like I’m married to the weather
Who caresses every curve
I thought it was giving me all the love I need
But it was just giving me the nerve
To be standing like a statue....

How does it feel, how does it feel....?

Come a little closer, touch me - I’m moving
Slip your hands inside my mistakes
And I if I ever let me down off this pedestal
Won’t you hold me for as long as it takes
I’m going to hold you for as long as it takes...

Easy now, I’ve been up here such a long time
I’m crumbling down, tumbling down
I’m falling apart, help me down
I’ve been a statue and I get no relief
With all these rainbows in my ribs and Thunder in my teeth
