Her fingers sweated India ink

Just below your bedroom

You can hear take a broom

To beat out
拍打出
A tattoo on the ceiling
天花板上癫狂的节拍
Her bloodless face ran red inside

Really evil was she only pantomime

Now the chalk on the wall

Just been washed off the

Into a puzzle where petrol will be poisoned by rain
