Walking to Wedmore

 Walking to Wedmore on a Sunny

Sunday morning

And the path is like a limosine that just runs on

And the river's like a swimmer's scene which lies in blatant sun

And the blackthorn flower, white as any nun

And Hawthorn stands in towers of the Chaffinch song

As primrose's sun's powers pray to all

And ferns are like the hallowed specks that drip and drop

I'm walking into Wedmore on a beautiful sunny morn

This is how the song goes, the song goes on and on, the song goes on and on

The fields lay so beautiful around the lightning swan

And the sun goes climbing skyward as the song is sung

Walking into Wedmore the sun shines on and on 

Beautiful sunny flowers on the road to marathon

And it keeps on going on

Arise

 All the ships come sailing in

at six o'clock in the morning

And I know you are my twin

When I see you yawning

The time has come and struck the bell

The hammer falls down into the well

And plop, clip - clop

The film reel fell

Those frames of us are like

Flames in hell

But I must not be so morose

No the lies are like bedridden aunts

And speaking clocks

Tell again time flies

Well stop it now

It don't feel nice

So what is behind all these shifting sands?

All this scenery of a world passing

Like grains through my hands

Yet ours is not of this world

There are bigger fish to fry

God lives in me and you

If you accept the spiritual ties

Leave this world of butter mountains behind

Rise up from those hills of bread

Drink not from the lake of wine

But instead sup the blood of Christ

Taste his flesh, cannibalize

His spotless sacrifice made

For our sins

And all is forgiven

So that's nice

Good things

 Well if you think you're sunk

You are'nt

There are a thousand ships like you 

they can't

And if you think your time time has come

it probably hasn't, you can't read the signs

There are a thousand dragons and a thousand

Maids

And like you

They are all looking to be be saved

So get off your arse

And listen to the grave

It is growin' grass over what you've left

We all are dying in our own way

Don't think yours is special

Just because you say

It's me, I am my, oh me, oh my!

You are another crumb in the fish pie

Get used to it while your'e

living

For tomorrow you may die!

You think because you're twenty

That it won't come to you

Well it will and there are plenty

Of reasons to think it's true

Well it will and soon you'll be sixty

Thinking this good thing has past

Don't try to take from another a thing

That you've already had

The sun is rising over the verandah

and you know that good things don't last

Blackhole love

 The moon loves the Earth

Pure love

Like a silver spoon and the tongue

They are falling in love,

Always falling the moon

Into the Earth's heart

The Earth into the moon's

Then Gravity is love

Love is gravity

And a black hole

Loves himself too much?

Or does she love Everything else too much

Glowing in the wedding ring diamond

Of an event horizon

She will engage you

And if you marry a blackhole

You'll go on honey moon

And lose all control

In his sweet surrender

And as a blackhole

He keeps very clean carpets
