@SONG: FORTUNE PRESENTS GIFTS NOT ACCORDING TO THE BOOK
Fortune Presents Gifts Not According To The Books
Fortune Presents Gifts Not According To The Books
When you expect whistles, it's flutes
when you expect flutes, it's whistles.
What various paths are followed in distributing honors and possessions
> she gives awards to some and penitents cloaks to others.
When you expect whistles, it's flutes
when you expect flutes, it's whistles
Sometimes she robs the chief goatherd af his cottage and goatpen
and to whomever she fancies the lamest goat is born to kids
[Chad: I think the proper line above should read "...penitent strokes..."]
When you expect whistles, it's flutes
when you expect flutes, it's whistles.
Because in a village a poor lad has stolen one egg.
he swings in the sun
While another gets away with a thousand crimes
When you expect whistles, it's flutes
when you expect flutes, it's whistles.

@SONG: BLACK SUN
MURDER!
Man of Fire!
MURDER!
I've seen the eyes of living Death.
It's descending, survival,
the great mass [lay-a-] awaiting [gain],
Dave:["great mass lay-waiting game"]
Bud:[Why is the great mass awaiting "game"?]
embalmed, prayerful,
dying in fear of pain!
All sense of FREEDOM gone!
Black Sun...
in a white world...
Like having a black son
in a white world.
I have a son!
His name is [Ethan]
It's his birthright...
beyond the strange light.
Dave:[* is Ethan a biblical name?]
Bud:[I too thought it sounded a bit like "EE-thin," but
I am not sure of the significanse or the meaning...
"Ethan" is not a biblical name as far as I am aware.]
Chad:[Are you sure it shouldn't read "Eden"? A sone named Eden? It would
fit with the bit about its being his birth-right.]
Give me 69 years
and a season in this hell
Bud:[possibly "another season in this hell"]
there's all sex and death
as far as eyes can tell.
Like Prometheus we are bound
chained to this rock
of a brave new world
our [god forsaken lost].
Chad:[I think this might be "Our godforsaken love"]
And I have a fear,
it's all we ever needed to know.
So, worlds end and the seas run cold!
Give me 69 years
and the season in this hell
there's all sex and death
in Mother Nature's plans.
Like Prometheus, we are bound
chained to this rock
of a brave new world
our god, forsaken, lost.
