Ciccone Youth - Me & Jill/Hendrix Cosby Lyrics
We had just left shore when everything began to happen at oncethe water came in and we started to go downI looked at jill and she looked back,thinking it would be alright to go downbut then the railings broke and the motors gave outthe hall emptied out and no-one was left for the bandthe amps all wet, speakers burst, soakedwe, up three flight now, tried to meet up with the galley crewbut it seemed everyone had gonewe had a smoke to pass some timeJill said "I'd love to, right now"what could I say?We did while the waters rose, licking our feetit was fun and funny so we laughedI loved the way she could laugh, so full bodiedwhen we hit the sky we were high over the roovesa field of gnarled antennas coiling upwardswaves and waveforms joining in a nice hot blastso different from the boatthe cold silver sky opened for us and we passed throughlast I saw of Jill she was heading into the coils of the antennaelaughing, so beautifulsaying she hadn't yet had her fill of the boys thereand the electricitysaying she wanted to plug in again and fry a bitI said: "watch the water love"she kept laughing and shook her hairshe said "I'd love to, right now, you know"so we did, and had a smoke too, and her lips partedthere in amongst the coiling snakes of an antennashe looked right at homethe waves came up and a blinding flash caught me dreaming of heras she looked all across with wires and spikes watching the blasteverything went orange and all my thoughts dissolved into the cloudI thought one last: how different from the sea is the boat
