Tube Within A Tube
At this my heart trembles just like the dappled sky
While the backyard houses symphonies of overused wind chimes
Umbrellas are for cowards for the foolish and the vain
I’ll get my slippery coat wet again and again
I’m just a worm I’m a tube within a tube
Coming from earth for to get a taste of you
Hopefully these colors
Will rearrange themselves
Into picture perfect sceneries
Of pots and pans and bells
Now let’s bang them all together
And throw them in the sky
Listen to the echoes keep on ringing till it's dry
I’m just a worm I’m a tube within a tube
Coming from earth for to get a taste of you
If it rained for forty days
Would I ever hear a sound?
I was hoping that the fish had seen
My lover’s body down
Or maybe footprints leading to a treasure above the ground
I’m just a worm I’m a tube within a tube
Coming from earth for to get a taste of you
It’s a foolish hope I know, but a hopeful one at least
And it’s nice to know that Noah saved the beasts
And it’s nice to know that thunder can make peace.
For all of its abstractions and math formulas Quaternions is pleasantly sprinkled with wry humor, general cleverness, reverence, and the magic vocal potion from Kid A (see Outside of Time). Ruby Parasols
