Not Drowning, Waving – Kerry's Green lyrics
Album: Cold And The Crackle
It's Eleanor Talbot down by Kerry's Green,
Sings to her house by the sea
And the purple tea cosy she wears on her head
It has holes for her ears and why not cos she's happy
The smell of the fibro, the memories of Northcote,
Tied up in a bag in the shed on the floor,
And sometimes she dances the dog to the rhumba
And then sleeps cos she's happy
It's enough for her just to be there,
That here was the place where she stopped
And she says to herself you're a nutty old fruitcake
But dear to my heart all the same
And she's happy as can be, and she's happy by the sea
Cos she lives by Kerry's Green, and she's happy there
