Suspended in Gaffa

Kate Bush Kate Bush

Out in the garden there's half of a heaven
And we're only bluffing we're not ones for busting through walls
But they've told us unless we can prove that
We're doing it we can't have it all
I want it all

He's gonna wangle a way to get out of it
She's an excuse and a witness who'll talk when he's called
But they've told us unless we can prove that
We're doing it we can't have it all
I want it all, I want it all
We can't have it all
I want it all

I caught a glimpse of God, all shining and bright

Suddenly my feet are feet of mud
It all goes slow-mo
I don't know why I'm crying
Am I suspended in gaffa?
Not until I'm ready for you
Not until I'm ready for you
Can I have it all?

I try to get nearer, but as it gets clearer
There's something appears in the way it's a plank in me eye
With a camel who's trying to get through it
Am I doing it? Can I have it all now?
I want it all

I pull out the plank and say: Thank you for yanking me
Back to the fact that there's always something to distract
But sometimes it's hard to know if I'm doing it right
Can I have it all now?
I want it all
Can I have it all now?
I want it all
Can I have it all?
I want it all
I can't have it all

We all have a dream
Maybe

Suddenly my feet are feet of mud
It all goes slow-mo
I don't know why I'm crying
Am I suspended in gaffa?
Not until I'm ready for you
Not until I'm ready for you
Can I have it all?

I won't open boxes that I am told not to
I'm not a Pandora, I'm much more like
That girl in the mirror between you and me
She don't stand a chance of getting anywhere at all
I want it all
Not anywhere at all
I want it all
No, not a thing
I want it all
She can't have it all

Mother, where are the angels? I'm scared of the changes

Suddenly my feet are feet of mud
It all goes slow-mo
I don't know why I'm crying
Am I suspended in Gaffa?
Not until I'm ready for you
Not until I'm ready for you

Suddenly my feet are feet of mud
It all goes slow-mo
I don't know why I'm crying
Am I suspended in Gaffa?
Not until I'm ready for you
Not until I'm ready for you
Can I have it all now?
