Hanging Bog (B. Crouch)
|
|
A clearing in the backwoods
The teeth of a saw
do their dance, hey
do their dance, hey
A single bent blade
No one knows its age
all that’s left of ‘em now
Tearing up the back roads
around Hanging Bog
Do your dance, hey
Do your dance, hey
Don’t break a single blade
of the grass, babe
Blend in with the fog
It began when the towers fell
It did not end when the bombs fell
So I came here with the bugs on
infected with their love
unkind
Fevered and fearful
and out of my mind
A tincture too late
A funeral wine
A clearing in the night sky
I see those bright eyes
Lookin’ this way
a' lookin’ that way
Do your dance, hey
a
I’ll be here when the stars fall
I’ll be here when the days dim
I’ll be here ‘til the comet comes
