lirik lagu graham smith - the will of john roach
the will of john roach is as follows:
as those who know me may not or not want to know
an oak tree grows within your soul
whose sole m.o. is to see its seeds are sown
so beads of sweat bleed from your bones
to soak the soil that chokes your throats
and holds your noses closed
and down you go
and down you go
and down we go, down we go
down we go, under the rush of the orinoco
and out in the brush, there’s a lonely old crone
in a moth-eaten cloak or an old kimono
waving and raving, saying
“no no no no, don’t lose the flow
or hope against hope
not all knots are rope on rope, you dope
you owe me one blood oath
you don’t know what you don’t know, duh, i know
you wrote some nice sentences
in a few mirrors for princes
now you’re here as my apprentice
get a tattoo that reads pretentious
swing for the benches
sing a song of disbelief suspension
start a band called the fifth declension
steal a m-n-script and palimpsest it”
the end offers no respite
from the curses you’ve been blessed with
voodoo is still infinite
and you who knew me now witnesseth:
i affirm this from within it
i, the undersigned, admit
it’s all a lie and i leave my business
in receivership, to my children
tear down the buildings
desecrate the past, god willing
you just can’t placate these hesychasts
accept your fate; it too shall p-ss
at last, the ugliest of wars
whose hors-m-n roar over rondos adjusts its scores
if you’d please, shut the coffin door
yours, john roach
