    Quiet Sun
    Rongwrong

    I'm looking in my little black book
    to see if I was right or rongwrong
    within the confines of whoremonger logic
    to even try to sing this song

    I could have asked the I Ching
    but that would have taken up too much time
    And with the time before [Fall]
    I didn't see there was no time to lose
    If things got bad it could always turn into a blues
    Like they do back home on the Delta –
    grunt and groan

    I'm looking in my little black book of European logic
    Still I can't make head or tail of it
    Ah, if I could only read between the lines
    Think of all the treasures I might find
    Learn the secret of trance and levitation
    Liberate my soul in six easy lessons

    Meanwhile I'll stay at home, listen to Schönberg in the bath
    and leave you to the geometry of my laugh
    to which you're welcome if it helps you at all
    to get your rocks off and have a ball

    Could there really be a thought that we have nothing to share?
    We drink the same water and we breathe the same air

    Deep down inside we need each other just the same
    You need me to laugh at and I need you to blame

    Hey in the pouring rain
    When the smell of terror brings a thousand eyes
    The red men come again
    They kill my children and they kill my wife
    And then they leave me bleeding
    Family dead, just freaking out bleeding
    Stoned in the gutter
    Empty of my colour
    I'm fried, fried, ticking in the side
    Body twitched from side to side
    I'm fried, fried, ticking in the side
    Body twitched from side to side

    Run, run, Reynard, run, run, run
    You've got to run for an hour and you're still not done
    You've got to run, run, Reynard, run, run, run
    Away, away, away, away, away

    Hey in the ice and snow
    When the call up sounds to the real in deed
    But do you really wanna know
    How we rode into freedom on whimsy and greed?
    And they said your time is over
    I don't see any gallant calls
    I don't see an inch of reflex
    'cept to leave me bleeding
    Bleeding, bleeding, bleeding
    I'm fried, fried, ticking in the side
    Body twitched from side to side
    I'm fried, fried, ticking in the side
    Body twitched from side to side

    Run, run, Reynard, run, run, run
    You've got to run for an hour and you're still not done
    Run, run, Reynard, run, run, run
    Away, away, away
    Run, run, Reynard, run, run, run
    You've got to run for an hour and you're still not done
    Run, run, Reynard, run, run, run
    Away, away, away, away, away

    Run, run, Reynard, run, run, run
    You've got to run for an hour and you're still not done
    Run, run, Reynard, run, run, run
    Away, away, away
    Run, run, Reynard, run, run, run
    You've got to run for an hour and you're still not done
    Run, run, Reynard, run, run, run
    Away, away, away, away, away

    Reynard left and went to Warwickshire, to a mound near a railway line,
    with canals and a freezing swamp. He climbs high up above the countryside
    and breathes freely. To the south he could see Polesworth, and to the
    north he could just make out the ruins of the priory where Joss and I
    played cricket as children. We were only three miles away, probably drinking
    tea and talking,

    (Have you heard about the orphan, sitting by the coffin)

    at the same time as he was taking the stanley knife out of
    the bag. He pushed the point into his stomach,

    (His Father's not a sinner no more)

    until the light shone right
    through. And then he reached down, and he took the bag.
    It's a plastic bag
    With plastic handles
    And plastic sides
    and
    and
    And
    ANd
    AND
    HE SPILLED HIS GUTS ALL OVER THE STAGE
    HE SPILLED HIS GUTS ALL OVER THE STAGE


    ps - Kudos to Tiassa for Robyn Hitchcock

    Shel Silverstein, "I Got Stoned and I Missed It"​

    Oh yes boys, play it sweet for me.

    I was sittin' in my basement; I'd just rolled myself a taste of
    Somethin' green, gold, and glorious to get me through the day.
    When my friend yells through my transom, "Grab your coat an' get your hat, son.
    There's a nut down on the corner a givin' dollar bills away."

    But I sat around a bit, and then I had another hit.
    And then I rolled myself a bomber, thought about my momma.
    Looked around, fooled around, played around while and then—

    I got stoned and I missed it,
    I got stoned and I missed it,
    I got stoned and it rolled right by.
    I got stoned and I missed it,
    I got stoned and I missed it,
    I got stoned—oh me, oh my.

    It took seven months of urgin' just to get that local virgin
    With the sweet face up to my place to fool around a bit.
    And next day she woke up rosy, and she snuggled up so cosy.
    But when she asked me how I liked it Lord it hurt me to admit—

    I was stoned and I missed it,
    I was stoned and I missed it,
    I was stoned and it rolled right by.
    I was stoned and I missed it,
    I was stoned and I missed it,
    I was stoned—oh me, oh my.

    I ain't makin' no excuses for so many things I uses
    Just to brighten my relationships and sweeten up my day.
    But when my earthly race is over, and I'm ready for the clover,
    And they ask me how my life has been, I guess I have to say,

    I was stoned and I missed it,
    I was stoned and I missed it,
    I was stoned and it rolled right by.
    I was stoned and I missed it,
    I was stoned and I missed it,
    I was stoned—oh me, oh my.​

    meh, he's no ari, but a son of philippe shall have to do.

    for what seemed hours, i wandered along the seine, schlepping about a parcel on wheels containing a harmonium, sundry electronics, and personal effects, in pursuit of that fabled hotel. (this did follow a previous successful pilgrimage to the gravesite.) what i found instead was a horrible girl who wooed me with her fondness for magma and gong--woo indeed: her supposed medical knowledge failed to distinguish between a fucking kidney and a liver. but anyways...

    abschied

    seinem geiste bekenne ich mich
    ein sehnen verzehret sein schönes gesicht
    das ermattet von güte beschattet allmächtig ist

    sein körper bewegt sich nicht
    im traume sich endlich sein zwingen vergißt

    den heulenden jubel erkenne ich nicht
    der mir den heiligen frieden zerbricht
    sein schweigender mund, seine schlafende brust
    harren zärtlich der süßen lust

    sein körper bewegt sich nicht
    im traume sich endlich sein zwingen vergißt

    you forgot to answer

    when i remember what to say
    when i remember what to say
    you will know me again
    and you forget to answer

    when i remember what to say
    when i remember what to say
    you will know me again
    and you forget to answer

    you seem not to be listening
    you seem not to be listening
    the high tide is taking everything
    and you forget to answer

    when i remember what to say
    when i remember what to say
    you will know me again
    and you forget to answer
