Carpet Crawlers Lyrics - Ray Wilson

There is lambswool under my naked feet 

The wool is soft and warm 

Gives off some kind of heat 

A salamander scurries into flame to be destroyed 

Imaginary creatures are trapped in birth 

On celluloid 

The fleas cling to the golden fleece 

Hoping they'll find peace 

Each thought and gesture are caught in celluloid 

There's no hiding in memory 

There's no room to avoid}

The crawlers cover the floor 

In the red ochre corridor 

For my second sight of people 

They've more life's blood than before 

They're moving in time 

To a heavy wooden door 

Where the needle's eye is winking 

Closing on the poor 

The carpet crawlers heed their callers 

You gotta get in to get out 

There's only one direction 

In the faces that I see 

And it's upward to the ceiling 

Where the chamber's said to be 

Like the forest fight for sunlight 

That takes root in every tree 

They are pulled up by a magnet 

Believing they're free

The carpet crawlers heed their callers 

You gotta get in to get out 

Mild-mannered Supermen 

Are held in kryptonite 

And the wise and foolish virgins giggle 

With there bodies glowing bright 

And through the door a harvest feast 

Is lit by candle light 

It's the bottom of a staircase 

That spirals out of sight 

The carpet crawlers heed their callers 

You gotta get in to get out 

The porcelain mannequin with shattered skin 

Fears attack 

And the eager pack lift up their pitchers 

That carry all they lack 

The liquid has congealed 

Which has seeped out through the crack 

And the tickler takes his stickler back 

The carpet crawlers heed their callers 

You gotta get in to get out
