Whaz' Zat - Shawn Phillips[00:00:00]
Lightning slaying shadows[00:00:02]
In the tremors of the night[00:00:04]
While he creeps among the alleys[00:00:05]
Bringing fear before the fright[00:00:07]
She sleeps in tattered trousers[00:00:08]
In the ballroom's decadence[00:00:10]
Moaning gently of her dreaming[00:00:14]
By escorted precedence[00:00:15]
Antiquated babblings[00:00:19]
From a constant stream of thought[00:00:21]
Sensitively wringing out[00:00:22]
The rags that he has caught[00:00:24]
Patting yet her bulging belly[00:00:28]
She so slowly cries a smile[00:00:29]
In anticipated suffering[00:00:31]
Of her slowly growing child[00:00:32]
He is speeding in a vacuum[00:00:39]
Going nowhere but of course[00:00:41]
He might believe in discipline[00:00:42]
Of a bloody kind of sort[00:00:44]
Naturally a state of race[00:00:45]
A never changing spate of hate[00:00:47]
While everything in some weird way[00:00:49]
Does manage to relate[00:00:50]
To her it doesn't matter more[00:00:52]
It's chasms have been leapt[00:00:53]
And she leans upon the skepticism of her chosen fate[00:00:55]
Stand tall you spittle smattered son of man[00:01:03]
Stand up you hear them say[00:01:07]
To slap you down and kick your teeth[00:01:10]
And smile across the bay[00:01:12]
Irrelevant eloquent pleading[00:01:16]
Wasn't what she did this year[00:01:17]
She passed it by and told a lie[00:01:19]
And shed a crystal tear[00:01:20]
For him to see from valley's edge[00:01:22]
From 0plateaus in the sand[00:01:23]
And yet he has besh*t himself[00:01:25]
For being just a man[00:01:26]
A bragging crowing sort of twit[00:01:33]
A cast off shade of pink[00:01:35]
Who's brought himself and all the rest[00:01:36]
Unto the very brink[00:01:38]
Yet that magic urge[00:01:41]
Continues on and plays continuum[00:01:42]
A song of pleasure and of pain[00:01:44]
Until that will be done[00:01:46]
