The Cool Cool River - Paul Simon[00:00:00]
Moves like a fist through the traffic[00:00:19]
Anger and no one can heal it[00:00:21]
Shoves a little bump into the momentum[00:00:23]
It's just a little lump[00:00:26]
But you feel it in the[00:00:27]
In the creases and the shadows[00:00:29]
With a rattling deep emotion[00:00:34]
The cool cool river[00:00:38]
Sweeps the wild white ocean[00:00:43]
Yes boss the government handshake[00:00:47]
Yes boss the crusher of language[00:00:49]
Yes boss mr stillwater[00:00:52]
The face at the edge of the banquet[00:00:54]
The cool cool river[00:00:57]
The cool cool river[00:01:02]
I believe in the future[00:01:10]
I may live in my car[00:01:15]
My radio tuned to[00:01:20]
The voice of a star[00:01:24]
Song dogs barking at the break of dawn[00:01:29]
Lightning pushes the edge of a thunderstorm[00:01:32]
These old hopes and fears[00:01:39]
Still at my side[00:01:42]
Anger and no one can heal it[00:01:58]
Slides through the metal detector[00:02:00]
Lives like a mole in a motel[00:02:03]
A slide in a slide projector[00:02:04]
The cool cool river[00:02:07]
Sweeps the wild white ocean[00:02:13]
The rage the rage of love turns inward[00:02:17]
To prayers of devotion[00:02:23]
These prayers are the constant road across the wilderness[00:02:27]
These prayers are[00:02:31]
These prayers are the memory of god[00:02:34]
The memory of god[00:02:43]
I believe in the future[00:02:50]
We shall suffer no more[00:02:54]
Maybe not in my lifetime[00:02:59]
But in yours I feel sure[00:03:03]
Song dogs barking at the break of dawn[00:03:09]
Lightning pushes the edges of a thunderstorm[00:03:11]
And these streets[00:03:17]
Quiet as a sleeping army[00:03:20]
Send their battered dreams to heaven to heaven[00:03:22]
For the mother's restless son[00:03:31]
Who is a witness to who is a warrior[00:03:34]
Who denies his urge to break and run[00:03:40]
Who says hard times[00:03:44]
I'm used to them[00:03:46]
The speeding planet burns[00:03:47]
I'm used to that[00:03:48]
My life's so common it disappears[00:03:49]
And sometimes even music[00:03:53]
Cannot substitute for tears[00:03:59]
