Mountain Goats, The
Sourdoire Valley Song
Bang the small rocks on the big onesTil the small ones are sharp and cleanCatch something, kill somethingNew blade cuts real keenAnd then the grass grows up to cover upThe firepit and the forgeHalf a world away from the Olduvai GorgeChew these roots for a toothacheChew these ones for atmosphereDream the pleasant dreams that people dreamWhen they grow up down hereAnd then the grass grows up to cover upThe firepit and the forgeHalf a world away from the Olduvai GorgeTake care of the old manSee if he's in painHave somebody stay with himComfort him when he complainsKeep to ourselves mostlyFew friends and fewer closer friendsLead a long life if you're luckySongtexteHope it never endsAnd then the grass grows up to cover upThe firepit and the forgeHalf a world away from the Olduvai Gorge
