The Offer

The Offer----Augie March[00:00:01]

This is a song not like the other ones [00:00:19]

Secret and selfish and somewhat hollow [00:00:27]

In the middle of this song there seemed to grown another[00:00:31]

Of indeterminate length and origin [00:00:40]

To populate a people's song first you must do something wrong [00:00:46]

If you've never been infirm you can never be strong [00:00:53]

Prune your rose bushes Djamila (Glenn)[00:00:59]

Or you'll never see your home again [00:01:03]

Country and city kingdom of the well of the unwell [00:01:08]

You dwell in them both like a ghost -[00:01:17]

When old King George said to my long dead kin[00:01:20]

"Ten summers and winters in Arthur will do you in"[00:01:23]

He cut out his heart and he buried the sin there in England [00:01:27]

Prune your rose bushes Luis (Glenn)[00:01:33]

Oh they'll grow up again [00:01:37]

There may still be a next year who knows [00:01:40]

If you're lonely take a drink there are better things to think [00:01:47]

Think on ancient cities sunsets and girls in Spring [00:01:54]

You needed a song I needed one too [00:02:27]

So keep listening[00:02:31]

FOR MY OFFER TO YOU[00:02:32]

Take it with good grace and humour too[00:02:34]

First came the golden age[00:02:48]

When there was no need of proof [00:02:54]

When lions ate flowers and your house[00:02:57]

Didn't need a roof [00:02:59]

Then came the silver days[00:03:01]

When a boy saw himself for the first time[00:03:06]

In the reflection of a blade[00:03:09]

Then he saw the way[00:03:11]

To populate a people's song [00:03:13]

First he must do something wrong [00:03:16]

If you've never heard the music you never will[00:03:19]

Prune your rose bushes Billy and Toby (Glenn)[00:03:43]

So they'll soon grow up again [00:03:46]

There may still be a next year who knows [00:03:49]

If you're lonely take a drink [00:03:56]

There are better things to think[00:04:00]

Think on ancient cities sunsets and girls in Spring [00:04:03]

Because all the tears that you mend [00:04:10]

They will open up again [00:04:13]

And weren't you suppose to call your friends this evening [00:04:17]

It rained all night the day I left [00:04:37]

The weather it was fine [00:04:40]

It rained all night the day I left[00:04:43]
