Lyric discussion by semoss50 

Lyrics as they appear on the sleeve of the LP:

grandma my sleep is narrow bid you bring me some strong drink strain out the pulps and set them close outside for when my little belly speaks

grandma there's air beneath my bed and it whispers when I rest bid hem the skirts in salt and vinegar and hover closely under head

grandma my hands have wandered my little legs are getting weak bid lend me your wispy frame guard my precious powers in its cage

grandma the water is rising my boundless hair has gotten green I'll be your swimming forest island bid you walk safely over me

oops, left out a verse......... here's the actual correct lyrics, sorry.....

grandma my sleep is narrow bid you bring me some strong drink strain out the pulps and set them close outside for when my little belly speaks

grandma there's air beneath my bed and it whispers when I rest bid hem the skirts in salt and vinegar and hover closely under head

grandma my hands have wandered my little legs are getting weak bid lend me your wispy frame guard my precious powers in its cage

Just throwing it out there, the lyrics on the jacket may differ from what was actually recorded. I only say this because the line you posted as "In my dreams and when I sleep" is clearly "In my dreams and with my speech."

fuck lol it is indeed "with my speech" im just an idiot and copied it wrong. wish i could delete the post?
