Comes and goes Like in fits and dizzy spells Like the weather
And it blows Like it knows what's going wrong Like it's clever
Has a name but the name goes unspoken Weather vanes Were all twisted and broken So soldier on, soldier on
Flailing to the whir of a snack machine And muted screams of an old regime And then oh Something gets in it The nightshade gets in it We were all fast asleep Were all so fast asleep But you woke us You woke us from the strangest dream that an aubergine could ever know Would ever know
Lava flows over crooks and craggy cliffs to the ocean And explodes in a steam heat fevered cyclical motion Has a name But the name goes unspoken It's in vain Cause the language is broken So cast your own, cast your own Soldier on
