I Marry the Bed

Lyrics
Finger to finger, now she's mine She's not too far. She's my encounter I beat her like a bell. I recline In the bower where you used to mount her You borrowed me on the flowered spread At night, alone, I marry the bed Take for instance this night, my love Hat every single couple puts together With a joint overturning, beneath, above The abundant two on sponge and feather Kneeling and pushing, head to head At night, alone, I marry the bed She took you the way a woman takes A bargain dress off the rack And I broke the way a stone breaks I give back your books and fishing tack Today's paper says that you are wed At night, alone, I marry the bed The boys and girls are one tonight They unbutton blouses. They unzip flies They take off shoes. They turn off the lights The glimmering creatures are full of lies They are eating each other. They are overfed At night, alone, I marry the bed
