His father died and left him a little farm in New England |
| [00:31.700] |
All the long black funeral cars left the scene |
| [00:34.330] |
And the boy was just standing there alone |
| [00:37.140] |
Looking at the shiny red tractor |
| [00:40.080] |
Him and his daddy used to sit inside |
| [00:43.140] |
And circle the blue fields and grease the night |
| [00:48.890] |
It was if someone had spread butter on all the fine points of the stars |
| [00:51.960] |
＇Cause when he looked up slip they started to |
| [00:55.700] |
Then he put his head in the crux of his arm |
| [00:58.270] |
And he started to drift drift to the belly of a ship |
| [01:04.390] |
|
| [01:11.300] |
Let the ship slide open and he went inside of it |
| [01:21.810] |
And saw his daddy ＇hind the control board streamin＇ beads of light |
| [01:33.120] |
He saw his daddy ＇hind the control board |
| [01:39.740] |
And he was very different tonight |
| [01:42.560] |
|
| [01:44.490] |
＇Cause he was not human he was not human |
| [02:08.170] |
And then the little boy＇s face lit up with such naked joy |
| [02:12.050] |
That the sun burned around his lids |
| [02:14.490] |
And his eyes were like two suns |
| [02:18.120] |
White lids white opals seeing everything just a little bit too clearly |
| [02:21.990] |
And he looked around and there was no black ship in sight |
| [02:25.430] |
No black funeral cars nothing except for him the raven |
| [02:29.740] |
And fell on his knees and looked up and cried out |
| [02:34.930] |
“No daddy don＇t leave me here alone |
| [02:44.370] |
Take me up daddy to the belly of your ship |
| [02:55.120] |
Let the ship slide open and I＇ll go inside of it |
| [03:05.240] |
Where you＇re not human you are not human ” |
| [03:27.180] |
But nobody heard the boy＇s cry of alarm |
| [03:38.310] |
Nobody there ＇cept for the birds around the New England farm |
| [03:43.120] |
And they gathered in all directions like roses they scattered |
| [03:46.630] |
And they were like compass grass coming together |
| [03:49.940] |
Into the head of a shaman bouquet |
| [03:52.750] |
Slit in his nose and all the others went shooting |
| [03:57.880] |
And he saw the lights of traffic beckoning like the hands of Blake |
| [04:02.130] |
|
| [04:03.540] |
Grabbing at his cheeks taking out his neck |
| [04:05.980] |
All his limbs everything was twisted and he said |
| [04:09.790] |
“I won＇t give up won＇t give up don＇t let me give up |
| [04:13.480] |
I won＇t give up come here let me go up fast |
| [04:17.170] |
Take me up quick take me up up to the belly of a ship |
| [04:28.180] |
And the ship slides open |
| [04:33.180] |
And I go inside of it where I am not human ” |
| [04:49.430] |
I am helium raven and this movie is mine |
| [04:53.310] |
So he cried out as he stretched the sky |
| [04:56.810] |
Pushing it all out like latex cartoon |
| [04:59.620] |
Am I all alone in this generation |
| [05:02.430] |
We＇ll just be dreaming of animation night and day |
| [05:07.310] |
And won＇t let up won＇t let up and I see them coming in |
| [05:12.000] |
Oh I couldn＇t hear them before but I hear ＇em now |
| [05:15.190] |
It＇s a radar scope in all silver and all platinum lights |
| [05:21.060] |
Moving in like black ships they were moving in streams of them |
| [05:26.560] |
And he put up his hands and he said “It＇s me it＇s me |
| [05:29.810] |
I＇ll give you my eyes take me up oh now please take me up |
| [05:35.190] |
I＇m helium raven waitin＇ for you please take me up |
| [05:40.560] |
Don＇t let me here ” the son the sign the cross |
| [05:45.070] |
Like the shape of a tortured woman |
| [05:47.940] |
The true shape of a tortured woman |
| [05:50.500] |
The mother standing in the doorway letting her sons |
| [05:53.560] |
No longer presidents but prophets |
| [05:57.000] |
They＇re all dreaming they＇re gonna bear the prophet |
| [05:59.380] |
He＇s gonna run through the fields dreaming in animation |
| [06:01.440] |
It＇s all gonna split his skull |
| [06:03.940] |
It＇s gonna come out like a black bouquet shining |
| [06:06.380] |
Like a fist that＇s gonna shoot them up |
| [06:08.940] |
Like light like Mohammed Boxer |
| [06:09.880] |
Take them up up up up up up |
| [06:13.380] |
Oh let＇s go up up take me up I＇ll go up |
| [06:16.820] |
I＇m going up I＇m going up |
| [06:18.750] |
Take me up I＇m going up I＇ll go up there |
| [06:21.440] |
Go up go up go up go up up up up up up up |
| [06:24.750] |
Up up to the belly of a ship |
| [06:32.490] |
Let the ship slide open and we＇ll go inside of it |
| [06:42.680] |
Where we are not human we＇re not human |
| [07:10.310] |
Well there was sand there were tiles |
| [07:16.000] |
The sun had melted the sand and it coagulated |
| [07:20.620] |
Like a river of glass |
| [07:24.250] |
When it hardened he looked at the surface |
| [07:27.750] |
He saw his face |
| [07:29.560] |
And where there were eyes were just two white opals |
| [07:33.060] |
Two white opals |
| [07:34.490] |
Where there were eyes there were just two white opals |
| [07:37.250] |
And he looked up and the rays shot |
| [07:39.880] |
And he saw raven comin＇ in |
| [07:46.110] |
|
| [07:48.850] |
And he crawled on his back and he went up |
| [07:55.480] |
Up up up up up up |
| [08:05.480] |
Sha da do wop da shaman do way |
| [08:14.350] |
Sha da do wop da shaman do way |
| [08:25.670] |
|
| [08:27.250] |
Sha da do wop da shaman do way |
| [08:37.440] |
Sha da do wop da shaman do way |
| [08:48.320] |
Sha da do wop da shaman do way |
| [08:57.820] |
We like birdland |
