Mountain Goats (The)
Deuteronomy 2:10
The sun above me and a concrete floor belowScratch at the chain links maybe bare my teeth for showFed twice a day I don't go hungry anymoreFeel in my bones just what the future has in storeI pace in circles so the camera will seeLook hard at my stripes, there'll be no more after meLaze by the shoreline while the sailors disembarkScratch out a place to sit and rest down in the darkSmell something burning downwind just a little waysThey set up camp and sing and sweat and work for daysI have no fear of anyone I'm dumb and wild and freeI am a flightless bird and there'll be no more after meIn Costa Rica in a burrow undergroundClimb to the surface, blink my eyes and look aroundI'm all alone here as I try my tiny songClaim my place beneath the sky but i won't be here for longI sang all night the moon shone on me through the treesNo brothers left and there'll be no more after me
