Choirs of angels in the sky
Black dogs prowling the highway
Stun gun rattle in the breaking dawn
And a single Mad God’s call.
If we climb above the wall
Do we think we’ll see it all?
Damp, dark breath from the Everglades
Alligator eyes burning in the shade
Insect clicking in the dying sun
And a single wild thing’s call.
If we climb above the wall
Do we think we’ll see it all?
So if you want to sing
Just sing it to the wind
The grains of sand are listening
The ocean waves are glistening
If you’re not there you’re missing it.
Brown brick cell in a tenement sprawl
Paining my soul all over the walls
Syncopated rhythm from the tangle of lives
And a single child in time.
If we climb above the wall
Do we think we’ll see it all?
Choirs of angels in the sky
Black dogs prowling the highway
Syncopated rhythm from the tangle of lives
And a single child in time.
If we climb above the wall
Do we think we’ll see it all?
So if you want to sing
Just sing it to the wind
The grains of sand are listening
The ocean waves are glistening
If you’re not there you’re missing it.
