Ottoman
Lyrics
Ottoman couch, how handsome your furniture Lovelier now, but dressed for a funeral Begging you to sit for a portrait on the wall To hang in the dark of some parliamentary hall ♪ Elegant clothes you want to be seen with her Under your tweeds you sweat like a teenager Begging you to sit for a portrait on the wall To hang in the dark of some parliamentary hall Today is for you ♪ They laid it out for you For you There will be six bells a-ringing and white women singing for you But this feels so unnatural to Peter Gabriel, too ♪ All of the costs and all of the time it took Soon it's all lines read in a leather book Begging you to wait for a minute by the door Your creeping feet where they've never been before Today is for you ♪ They laid it out for you For you There will be six bells a-ringing and white women singing for you But this feels so unnatural to Peter Gabriel, too
