Letter From Abroad - John Cale[00:00:00]
It's a squalid little town with a tenuous beauty[00:00:17]
The cool wet mornings are so appealing[00:00:22]
People waking up suddenly in the night[00:00:28]
Very disappointed[00:00:35]
At the water's edge fishermen smashing[00:00:51]
Their boats – taking nothing for granted[00:00:58]
In a few hours the heat will hang over town[00:01:03]
As the northeast monsoon comes roaring in[00:01:08]
Can you feel it [00:01:13]
Can you feel it [00:01:19]
Afghanistan Afghanistan[00:01:25]
Whatever happened to you[00:01:28]
Afghanistan Afghanistan[00:01:36]
Whatever happened to you[00:01:39]
I don't really care but I thought I'd ask in[00:01:42]
Case it mattered to you – let me hear it[00:01:45]
They're cutting their heads of in the soccer field[00:01:59]
Stretching their necks in the goal[00:02:04]
Taking them out in the elephant grass[00:02:10]
Feeding them to the hyena's[00:02:16]
Don't you hear it[00:02:21]
Everybody's lips are thin –[00:02:52]
Eventually eyes are empty[00:02:55]
From abroad life is cheaper back home[00:03:00]
Can you feel it [00:03:09]
Afghanistan Afghanistan[00:03:12]
Whatever happened to you[00:03:15]
Let me hear it[00:03:17]
Afghanistan Afghanistan[00:03:24]
Whatever happened to you[00:03:26]
Let me hear it[00:03:29]
Afghanistan Afghanistan[00:03:35]
Whatever happened to you[00:03:38]
Afghanistan Afghanistan[00:03:41]
Whatever happened to you[00:03:43]
You learn form novels living out there rainfall[00:03:57]
Is followed by thunder[00:04:04]
You hear a man's voice soothing and[00:04:09]
Calm – "I understand no problem"[00:04:13]
I understand no problem[00:04:20]
I understand no problem[00:04:26]
I understand no problem[00:04:32]
I understand no problem[00:04:38]
