Anyway |
All the pumping’s nearly over for my sweet heart, |
This is the one for me, |
Time to meet the chef, |
O boy! |
running man is out of death. |
Feel cold and old, it’s getting hard to catch my breath. |
's back to ash, 'now, you’ve had your flash boy' |
The rocks, in time, compress |
your blood to oil, |
your flesh to coal, |
enrich the soil, |
not everybody’s goal. |
Anyway, they say she comes on a pale horse, |
But I’m sure I hear a train. |
O boy! |
I don’t even feel no pain — |
I guess I must be driving myself insane. |
Damn it all! |
does earth plug a hole in heaven, |
Or heaven plug a hole in earth — 'how wonderful to be so profound, |
when everything you are is dying underground.' |
There’s not much spectacle for an underground creole |
as he walks through the gates of Sheol. |
«I would have preferred to have been jettisoned |
into a thousand pieces in space, |
or filled with helium and floated above a mausoleum. |
This is no way to pay my last subterranean homesick dues. |
Anyway I’m out of the hands of any pervert embalmer |
doing his interpretation of what I should look like, |
stuffing his cotton wool in my cheeks.» |
I feel the pull on the rope, let me off at the rainbow. |
I could have been exploding in space |
Different orbits for my bones |
Not me, just quietly buried in stones, |
Keep the deadline open with my maker! |
See me stretch; |
for God’s elastic acre |
The doorbell rings and its |
«Good morning Rael |
So sorry you had to wait. |
It won’t be long, yeah! |
She’s very rarely late.» |
