Robert Onion Lyrics - Frank Black And The Catholics

Robert leads me into thought 

Onion layers wait for you 

Bounty of eternal fields 

Every muscle knot I feel 

Robert tell me what to do 

Tell exactly what you're not, yeah 

Tails pushing grand whales 

Heads hope to have the stuff 

Each flag had no sail 

Can you believe enough? 

And though Diana calls to you 

She will never never yield 

Every siren has her spot 

Four hundred million 

Oh that was very far 

Robert sweet Onion 

Makes me feel so tired 

Another layer and layers and layer, oh no 

Robert can you find your way? 

Show me the way to come 

Zugzwang got me in a way 

Under my opposing thumb 

Brandishing my shield 

Robert leads me into thought 

Into the dimming blue 

Nowhere in this world 

For this old Jack-Tar 

Three cheers for Robert 

To the cinnabar one ponders 

Layers and layers and layers and 

Layers and layers and layers and 

Layers and layers and layers and 

Layers and layers and layers and 

Robert, Robert, Robert
