Lyrics The Touch - The Residents
Residents
God
In
Three
Persons
The
Touch
as
they
told
me
other
childhood
stories,
they
knew
that
I
stood
close
but
never
close
enough
to
touch
the
holy
union
of
their
bonding
that
I
wished
to
touch
so
fondly
with
my
heart,
and
maybe
somehow
more.
But
they
had
a
way
of
keeping
it
away,
while
never
seeming
less
than
big
and
open
friendly
doors.
The
one
day
it
finally
happened.
JUst
before
they
took
a
nap,
we
joked
around
the
room
in
which
they
slept.
They
were
kidding
me
about
an
incident
when
I
kicked
out
some
rowdy
shouting
somethng
near
the
door.
They
said
that
I
had
looked
afraid
and
if
I
didn't
act
my
age,
then
they
would
have
to
hold
me
back
next
time.
I
laughed
and
said
that
it
would
take
more
than
just
two
freaks
to
make
me
stop
if
someone
iterrupted
us
again.
And
with
that
we
started
shoving
back
and
forth
until
a
sudden
move
caught
me
completely
off
my
guard.
They
reached
surrounding
me
within
a
wall
of
flesh-I
found
my
only
freedom
left
was
in
my
had
which
dangled
own
between
their
sides
until
I
jerked
and
seemed
to
watch
it
flutter
down
upon
their
joint.
And
suddenly
a
shock
went
through
me
and
a
moment
slipped
into
the
room
that
was
not
in
the
air
before.
Looking
up
we
al
connected
in
a
triangle
of
eyes
reflecting
tension
and
unsaid
excitement,
too.
Then
it
passed
in
nervous
laughter,
but
I
sensed
a
change
soon
after
we
unlocked
our
limbs
and
I
withdrew.
