lyrics

Look into my heart andy...
is there a fish living inside me?
Cuz a fishbowlhead you see
would never let the sucker free.
Sleeping in their submarines,
heads in bubbles never learn to breathe.
Three rings from a bell above
would get them torn into a giant flood.

Idleness--
to the crow--
does not exist...
I don't think so.
A certain song,
a certain flight.
Birds on the left,
sea on the right.

Put my name down on the list
and they put me on a rocketship.
Put my name down again
into translations by an Oxford man.
Disembarking from a sandy beach,
the beasts, the air, the birds their song do cease
and the smoke will rise in perfect lines:
another omen for our book of signs.

Idleness--
to the crow--
does not exist...
I don't think so.
A certain song,
a certain flight.
Birds on the left,
sea on the right.
The morning sun
burned the hands
that rowed the oars
away from shore
and those that stayed--
the petrified--
became the dirt
or fossilized.
