oh mother drop me on the wild wet shore & let me run along the ocean floor
oh father teach me how to make war with the waves
oh boy show me all the shells you’ve found
there’s more to find under the sandy ground
girl confound us with the way that you behave
the night told a story that we read by the fire, which led us all to rest
cos we had to lie to get our eyes to where they could read it best
and while gemini saw us close our eyes taurus tucked us in
and we’re waiting on aquarius to bring the tide in
oh son show me how to do your walk your speech is silly but i’ll hear you talk
i’m floating still from the words your mother said
and daughter don’t let the stars grow dim behind your eyelids as you wait for him he’ll kiss you awake and then only tears of joy you’ll shed
and though scorpio and cancer lie in wait beneath the sand
and sagittarius suffers arrows for the virgo’s hand
where pisces swims to calm his nerves libra weighs his deeds
and aries scampers on the hills where capricorn feeds
and though leo roars every time we cross swords, taurus tucks us in
Sounds like a great soundtrack for an America as crusty as the tiles on their album cover. Lush instrumentation, pulls you in hypnotically. Magilla Shuwall
My good friend Keith produced and engineered this one. Sounds like you're right there in the room headbanging along. Drives heavy and keeps it interesting. Magilla Shuwall
