Coffee Homeground

"Coffee Homeground" By Kate Bush From 1978’s "Lionheart" Intro:                   Down in the cellar You’re getting into making poison.          You slipped some on the side                    Into my glass of wine     And I don’t want any coffee--homeground.         Offer me a chocolate         No thanks you spoil my diet know your game!   Tell me just how come They smell of bitter almonds?         It’s a no-no to your coffee homeground.    (Refrain) Pictures of Crippin Bdim       B Lipstick-smeared. Torn wallpaper. Have the walls got ears here?           You won’t get me with your belladonna--in the coffee                      And you won’t get me with your arsenic--in the pot of tea                         And you won’t get me in a hole to rot--with your hemlock                     On the rocks. (Repeat verse and refrain) Where are the plumbers Who went a-missing here on Monday? There was a tall man With his companion And I bet you gave them coffee--homeground. Maybe you’re lonely And only want a little company But keep your recipes For the rats to eat And may they rest in peace with coffee homeground. Well you won’t get me with your Belladonna--in the coffee And you won’t get me with your arsenic--in the pot of tea And you won’t put me in a six-foot plot--with your hemlock On the rocks. (Refrain)                                   You won’t get me with your Belladonna--in the coffee And you won’t get me with your arsenic--in the pot of tea And you won’t get me in a hole to rot--with your hemlock On the rocks. With your hemlock on the rocks. "Noch ein Glas mein Liebchen?" With your hemlock on the rocks. "Es schmeckt wunderbahr!"* With your hemlock on the rocks. "Und ???"
