someone's mother falls to the sidewalk
|
on the next street someone looks up
|
in the cathedral a burst of laughter
|
in another city the pigeons fly up and scatter.
|
someone puts down in a New York subway
|
a newspaper picked up in Australia
|
for each event the inarticulate glory
|
the equal and opposite will tell the story
|
|
HALF ANGEL HALF EAGLE
|
ONE EYE ON THE WORLD
|
HALF ANGEL HALF EAGLE
|
ONE EYE ON THE WORLD
|
BE READY
|
|
five intelligent minds huddled in a fancy restaurant
|
all that brain power bent on.....
|
WHAT SHALL I? WHAT SHALL I?...
|
|
one lone car cruising the warehouse district
|
one lone figure shuffling along the wall
|
two shadows leaning from the backseat window
|
someone's mother is about to fall
|
fuckinghonkyniggerjewwaspjapdagofag
|

|
GET OUT GO BACK A STORM IS COMING
|
(a shudder in the colour of the warehouse wall)
|
|
HALF ANGEL HALF EAGLE
|
ONE EYE ON THE WORLD
|
HALF ANGEL HALF EAGLE
|
ONE EYE ON THE WORLD
|
BE READY
|
|
have a good time but don't relax
|
have a good time but be on guard
|
you don't need that much not that much
|
get the wings up ready to go
|
get the wings up ready to go
|
what shall I? what shall I?
|
|
a shudder in the colour of the warehouse wall
