SAM THE LION
Things haven’t been the same since Sam the Lion died
For now we see our world through sad eyes
She turns the other way so that I won’t see her cry
And though our time is done, she’s saying: “Never you mind;
Never you mind…”
As Wagon Master’s playing
through the flickering light
This ageing bag of bones is dog-tired
We finally got us a team now here at Anarene High
An elegy of days when we were still young and wild
Oceans in your eyes
All our wasted lives
Oceans in your eyes
Fireworks split the sky
4th of July
The leaves blow long against a
monochrome sky
As the gap between what we want
and who we are
grows ever wide…
