The Sweet Hereafter
Led us, he said, to a joyous land
Joining the town and just at hand
Honey bees had lost their stings
Horses were born with eagles' wings.
The sweet hereafter
Waters gushed and fruit-trees grew
The sweet hereafter
Flowers put forth a fairer hue.
All the little boys and girls
With rosy cheeks and flaxen curls
Sparkling eyes and and teeth like pearls
Tripping and skipping
Run merrily after the music with laughter.
The sweet hereafter
Waters gushed and fruit-trees grew
The sweet hereafter
Flowers put forth a fairer hue
The sweet hereafter
Everything was strange and new.
As they reached the mountain's side
A wondrous portal opened wide
A cavern was suddenly hollowed
The piper advanced the children followed
When all were in to the very last
The door in the mountainside shut fast.
The sweet hereafter
Waters gushed and fruit-trees grew
The sweet hereafter
Flowers put forth a fairer hue
The sweet hereafter
Everything was strange and new.
One More Color
"Is it lasting?"
And in asking
The sphere becomes a line
A dotted line
And to follow it you
Must make a jump each time.
A dotted page
A dotted hillside
A blast of dots
A blind reader
A flock of sheep
A blast of trumpet shots.
Here, all we have here is sky
All the sky is is blue
All that blue is is one more colour, now.
A basket of apples
By the back door
Beneath the sweater pegs
The autumn leaves
Lift along the street
A pair of dancing legs.
Same as the vendor
Who likes to sing
As loudly as he can
And all he says is
It suits me fine
That's the way I am.
Here, all we have here is sky
All the sky is is blue
All that blue is is one more colour, now.
Speak a little softer
And work a little louder
Shoot less with more care
And sing a little sweeter
And love a little longer
And soon you will be there.
Here, all we have here is sky
All the sky is is blue
All that blue is is one more colour
One more colour
One more colour, now.
Courage
Watch the band through a bunch of dancers
Quickly, follow the unknown
With something more familiar
Quickly, something familiar.
Courage, my word
It didn't come, it doesn't matter.
Sleepwalk, so fast asleep
In a motel that has the lay of home
And piss on all of your background
And piss on all your surroundings.
Courage, my word
It didn't come, it doesn't matter
Courage, my word
It didn't come, it doesn't matter
Courage, couldn't come at a worse time.
There's no simple explanation
For anything important any of us do
And yea the human tragedy
Consists in the necessity
Of living with the consequences
Under pressure, under pressure.
Courage, my word
It didn't come, it doesn't matter
Courage, my word
It didn't come, it doesn't matter
Courage, my word
It didn't come, it doesn't matter
Courage, couldn't come at a worse time.
