I See Your Beginning Lyrics - Steve Kilbey

[Unreleased, from a demo reel dated Dec. 14, 1983.] 

Don't touch the snake who beckons you, his eyes are full of ice 

You'll be slippery just like he is, living on bad advice 

And I see you're beginning to undergo a subtle change of scale 

It's not the first time that I've noticed, and there on (1:00) hangs a tale 

The royals (1:28) that they bring at you almost brush your ears 

Some people just arrived from another world that isn't far from here 

And I see you're beginning to understand that your circulation's been weird (1:50) 

And you squeeze the life out of everything, exactly as I feared 

...Your beginning 

I see your beginning 

I see your beginning
