The Cabinet of Kuniyoshi Kaneko (金子国义的橱柜) - Momus[00:00:00]

Leopards prowl the studios of the Duc de Berry's great chateau[00:00:23]

Where Cocteau's beast rehearses Beauty's rape[00:00:28]

Lewis Carroll marks his diary with a small white stone[00:00:33]

As Kuniyoshi Kaneko prepares to paint[00:00:37]

Listen to the shells my darling what you hear is not the sea[00:00:42]

But whispering malicious human hearts[00:00:46]

Adults who don't wish to know the Duc de Berry's great chateau[00:00:51]

And hate the world of childhood and of art[00:00:56]

We who paint or photograph to stop your dying in its path[00:01:01]

And fix you in the permanence of spring[00:01:05]

Can't stop the prattlers prattling[00:01:10]

The rattlesnakes who rattling see ugliness in every living thing[00:01:12]

See ugliness in every living thing[00:01:19]

The calculated insolence of little girls in sailor suits[00:01:24]

Whose faces seem to say more than they know[00:01:28]

Appetites and ornaments for the libertine in all of us[00:01:33]

From the cabinet of Kuniyoshi Kaneko[00:01:38]

Follow to the studio where Alice Liddell plays the roles[00:01:42]

Of tousle-headed naked gypsy girls[00:01:47]

The Reverend Charles L. Dodgson from the darkness of his camera[00:01:52]

Preserves her for himself and for the world[00:01:56]

Children torn by cruel desires the handiwork of murderers[00:02:01]

Who hack their little bodies to the bone[00:02:05]

Somehow live to tell the tale astonishingly fit and well[00:02:10]

They couple in the fabulous chateau[00:02:15]

We who paint or photograph to stop your dying in its path[00:02:20]

And fix you in the permanence of spring[00:02:24]

Can't stop the prattlers prattling[00:02:29]

The rattlesnakes who rattling see ugliness in every living thing[00:02:31]

In every lovely living thing[00:02:39]

A looking glass is not a world[00:02:50]

A painted girl is not a girl[00:02:52]

In games there can be no forbidden things[00:02:55]

In life remain considerate in art the Devil's advocate[00:02:59]

Why deny that Pegasus has wings[00:03:04]

In life remain considerate in art the Devil incarnate[00:03:08]

Why deny the siren when it sings[00:03:13]

In games there must be no forbidden things[00:03:18]

So watch the wall my darling while the gentlemen go by[00:03:41]

And mark your diary with a small white stone[00:03:46]

Little hearts of marzipan and lacquer work from old Japan[00:03:51]

In the cabinet of Kuniyoshi Kaneko[00:03:55]

Watch the wall my darling while the gentlemen go by[00:04:00]
