We have your eoliths and your monoliths and your neoliths We have your Babylons and your Pompeiis Your Caesars and your chromium-plated, vital ingredient impregnated artifacts We have your bloody hatchets and your Hiroshimas We march in spite of hell we do, antropy, entropy, and proteus vulgaris Telling bawdy jokes about a farm girl named Eve, and a traveling salesman named Lucifer We bury your dead and their reputations We bury you, we are the centuries Be born then, grasp wind, screech at the surgeons slap, seek manhood Taste a little of godhood, feel pain, give birth, struggle a little while Succumb dying, leave quietly by the rear exit please Generation re-generation again again as in ritual With blood stained vestments and nail torn hands Children of Merlin chasing a dream, children of Eve forever building Edens And kicking them apart in berserk fury, because somehow it isn't the same Agh, Agh, Agh, an idiot screams his mindless anguish amid the rubble But quickly, let it be inundated by the choir, chanting alleluias at ninety decibels Hear then the last canticle of the brethren of the order of leibowitz As sung by the century that swallowed its name Lucifer is fallen Lucifer is fallen Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa. |
