The Events Leading Up To The Collapse Of Detective Dullight
Of Montreal
앨범 : Coquelicot Asleep In The Poppies : A Variety Of Whimsical Verse
There was jello in the fingerprints
Detective Dulllight discovered
It proved to be the most important
finding in the case
And where as Detectives Slocks and Slovits
slobbered over smutty photographs
Dulllight had a better lead to follow
He followed the ringing to the telephone
where a voice asked
Excuse me aren't you so and so
Oh so and so since you left
I have been eating only sweets
cause they remind me of you
He felt this surely was a clue
So he climbed into the tub wearing
his underwear and overcoat jumped aboard
the model boat and
followed the water down the drain
In his brain there are file cabinets and
secretaries filing their nails downstairs
But I don't want to talk about that
room downstairs At this moment
Detective Slocks and Slovets
realize that since they had reported
on the crime scene
this morning each of them has aged over
fifty years Two butterflies land
on their shoulders and harmonize softly in
their ears Where did all the time go
Did you think that you'd stay young
forever But at least you're still together
The two detectives held hands
in the moonlight
The butterflies flew away
which prompted Slovit's to sayl
miss them already Slocks removed
a fountain pen from his breast
pocket drove
it deep into Slovit's throat
and began screeching
DEATH TO THE PARCHMENT WHALE
THE ROBOT IAM LASAILE
While in prison Slocks wrote
one of the most revered
exercises in free verse titled
The Cause of Gauze
Oh the cause of gauze The
Manuels have fondled many
memories from my lap though
each memory has its own
lap and swimmers swim laps
Even swimmers have laps however
and while in that
condition many require a delicate
gauze I desire only this in my decrepitude
that I will have one more opportunity
to serve as a gauze to my fellow man and
that in that state of gauze
can somehow disturb the world
less often with my
prickly fingers When Detective Dulllight
returning from the catacombs first
heard the news of the Slocks and
Slovets stabbing and subsequent poetry
enterprise he immediately fell
to the floor and began plucking
peaches from his
cheeks This eventually became a
tiresome activity so he evaporated into the
cream a float a child's bedtime coco
