Commentary
Comments from the "Natural
Selection" liner notes (by Mark Seymour):
Yearning. The dog keeps coming back. Waits at the backdoor of
her bungalow, day and night. The sound of her bare feet on the linoleum. The dog
is drooling.
Lyrics
I come around in the morning, I come around at night
Sniff it in the air in the morning light
Here's love and the world well lost
I learned how to bark and I learned how to
bite
And when you start bleeding you talk all night
Here's the place where the scent got lost
I scratched at the gate and I scratched at the
ground
My hair stands up when the gate swings round
It's all comin' out into the open and I'm lickin' your hand all over
It's all comin' out into the open and I'm lickin' your hand all over
I come around in the morning, I come around at night
Sniff it in the air in the morning light
Here's love and the world well lost
I learned how to bark and I learned how to
bite
And when you start bleeding you talk all night
Here's the place where the scent got lost
Your name is Hazel, the hammer and tongs
girl
You got fingers like ginger-roots
Now it's all comin' out into the open and I'm lickin' your hand all over
Now it's all comin' out into the open and I'm lickin' your hand all over
Here is a love and a world, we're
lost
Here is a love and a world, we're
lost
And it's all coming out in the open
Lickin' your hand all over
Lickin' your hand all over
Lickin' your hand all over
Lickin' your hand all over
