Fall (The)

Wings
Day by day The moon gains on me Day by day The moon gains on me Purchased pair of flabby wings I took to doing some HOVERING Here is a list of incorrect things HOVERED mid-air outside a study An academic kneaded his chin Sent in the dust of some cheap magazines His academic rust, could not burn them up Recruited some gremlins To get me clear of the airline routes I paid them off with stuffing from my wings They had some fun with those cheapo airline snobs The stuffing loss made me hit a timelock I ended up in the eighteen sixties I've been there for one hundred and twenty five years A small alteration of the past. Can turn time into space Ended up under Ardwick Bridge With some veterans from the U.S. Civil War SongtexteThey were under Irish patronage We shot dead a stupid sergeant But I got hit in the crossfire The lucky hit made me hit a time lock But, when I got back The place I made the purchase, no longer exists I'd erased it under the bridge Day by day The moon came towards me By such things The moon came towards me So now I sleep in ditches And hide away from nosey kids The wings rot and feather under me The wings rot and curl right under me A small alteration of the past Can turn time into space Small touches can alter more than a mere decade Wings [17x] Aus Songtexte Mania
