Katzenjammer Kabarett Three Sketches
My darling baby now let's go to bed But darling sounds like beloved instead Mommy ignores the lurking dread Sweet child of hers has twins in her head Has twins in her head... "I got twins in my head!!"
The bed was tucked, there wass no one around I wish I could move but my limbs are bound The night is so thick and sweet Mommy's gone Afraid of the dark and the voices come. The voices come (and my Mommy's gone)
Dollies and puppets dance on the shelf Night-night me, night-night myself Pictures, voices and thoughts in whirls Girlies kissing other girls and other girls
Silent moans: "Oh Mommy please help me!" "Kiss her, no, kill her!" Can't help this uneasy Dolly mixture of feelings and shadows Anger and joy tension and sorrow And everything goes...
Gingerbread bogeymen, void wedding dresses Dance in the trees, giving cold kisses Legions of shades walk by the windows While winds blow the cries of weeping willows (She's the one to know)
Through the moonlit forest pale feet ran fast Trying to escape from herself aghast The very last step was made to the river Where lily-white dresses float forever For ever and ever
Everything hastened in the fake roundabout Poor Gemini girl, she found no way out By her lily-white hand, The dead dollies took her And tied her to dreams for ever and ever
Gemini Girly came and said to me "Don't you be worried, I lie with dollies And they look after me Just like sweet Mommy Used to care for me Used to care for me
And now every night, she comes in my sleep Now every night she comes in my sleep!"
Sweet Gemini Girly cries, Gemini Girly dies, Gemini Girly lies Her lily white dress shines Deep deep down inside, deep deep down inside The river and my mind, the river and my mind "Down inside, The river and... my mind"
