This track really stood out for me when i first heard Robert's "Comicopera" album in 2007 and it became glued forever in my mind ! When i hear the name of Robert Wyatt i always here this song in my inner self ...
The lyrics are a poem written by the Spanish poet Garcia Lorca (1898 - 1936).
Once in an interview Robert described the song as sub aquatic surrealism ...
