The Mountain Goats
What's this song about?

1
We had our passports out
2
And the kits to fix 'em up with.
3
And the hurricane lamp
4
threw our shadows on the ceiling.
5
I watched 'em box with one another up there
6
Punch and Judy.
7
It was lovely, it was awful,
8
It was that kind of feeling,
9
when you said it was real sure,
10
and there was nothing standing in our way.
11
And the lie ran off and hid itself
12
in the alleys all across Bombay.
13
I saw you knock the lamp over
14
while reaching for the scissors
15
and I wondered how we'd ever
16
get by without it.
17
And you fell into my arms then,
18
sweet and gentle.
19
Poison in the water
20
little doubt about it.
21
And you said that one of us
22
would be all alone someday.
23
And the truth of it echoed
24
inexhaustibly up and down the thoroughfares
25
all across Bombay.
