In me, I grow with mirth To shine in all my worth Line for line Pining time Lift up my burdens to you Let it fall to the dregs of death Fens and herons Showers of love lift

Auburn skies Mittens & fleece Leaves care fluttering...fluttering...flutter Kissing me, Chartreuse, love,

Gather round young fellows And taste the blackberries! All is ripe and fruitful. Eat them as you please! Dance, dance, the night is young. Today is all we've got. When frost comes and spring has sprung, Let not your humour rot.

I wanna wanna dance with you I wanna wanna trance anew I wanna wanna kiss your cheek I wanna wanna forget how to speak I wanna wanna get dirty in paint I wanna wanna watch you make me faint I wanna wanna break all need I wanna wanna forget how to read I wanna wanna be a bog I wanna wanna fuck the fog I wanna wanna leave this earth I wanna wanna live my worth

Down south to the swamp did I go In search of sparkle which did glow. Air like hugs kiss bare skin like beer. Hair long and thick, a garden queer. Feathers and leaves, bodies like trees, A star I was with none to please. Tinsel town went I for a while. Sparkles saw I but found no smile. Stylish maiden might I have been Were I to find my holy scene. Land of Mary return did I. My home I loved, warm yellow sky. Part only for trades I did lack. Still I have none for I am black Sheep in pastures proclaimed free. Bard life tramping has chosen me. So, nowhere glows where hatred flows. My sparkle beams alone with me.

Damning all who laugh at my pious grace! Glamming call to that which gazes thru this face Of Holy Need and Deathly Desire. In love, I burnish And in letch, I exalt glacial fire. Ruin all with courtly might! Death so bright!

about

"Sparkle Rock! III" is glam for the Dark Ages. Eyelashes!'s ever-shortening songs infuse medieval musings with early-70s glam rock production Ă  la Brian Eno and Robert Fripp. The mix of ancient and retro manifests an esoteric pop as lamenting as it is rum. Imagine a renegade nun composing psychedelic psalms in her night office.

"Blackberry Jam" references "A Taste of Blackberries" by "zèbres."
