The Width Of A Circle (2020 Mix)

In the corner of the morning

in the past

I would sit and blame

the master first and last

All the roads were

straight and narrow

And the prayers were

small and yellow

And the rumour spread

that I was aging fast

Then I ran across a monster

who was sleeping

By a tree

And I looked and frowned

and the monster was me

Well I said hello

and I said hello

And I asked "Why not"

and I replied "I don't know"

So we asked a simple black bird

who was happy as can be

And he laughed insane

and quipped "KAHLIL GIBRAN"

And I cried for all the others

till the day was nearly through

For I realized that

God's a young man too

Oh I said "So long"

and I waved "Bye-bye"

And I smashed my soul

and traded my mind

Got laid by a young bordello

Who was vaguely half asleep

For which my reputation

swept back home in drag

And the moral of

this magic spell

Negotiates my hide

When God did take my logic

for a ride

Riding along

oooooh

oooooh

He swallowed his pride

and puckered his lips

And showed me the leather belt

round his hips

My knees were shaking

my cheeks aflame

He said "You'll never go down

to the Gods again"

Turn around go back

He struck the ground

a cavern appeared

And I smelt the burning

pit of fear

We crashed a thousand yards below

I said "Do it again

do it again"

Turn around go back

His nebulous body swayed above

His tongue swollen

with devil's love

The snake and I

a venom high

I said "Do it again

do it again"

Turn around go back

Breathe breathe

breathe deeply

And I was seething

breathing deeply

Spitting sentry

horned and tailed

Waiting for you

ooooh

ooooh
