We're sailing at the edges of time
Backwater
We're drifting at the
waterline
Oh we're floating in the coastal waters
You and me and the porter's
daughters
Ooh what to do not a sausage to do
And the shorter of the porter's
daughters
Dips her hand in the deadly waters
Ooh what to do in a tiny canoe
Black water
There were six of us but now we are five
We're all talking
To keep
the conversation alive
There was a senator from ecuador
Who talked about a meteor
That crashed on a hill in the south of peru
And was found by a conquistador
Who took it to
the emperor
And he passed it on to a turkish guru.
His daughter
Was
slated for becoming divine
He taught her
He taught her how to split and define
But if
you study the logistics
And heuristics of the mystics
You will find that their minds
rarely move in a line
So it's much more realistic
To abandon such ballistics
And
resign to be trapped on a leaf in a vine. | | | |
