lyrics

I’m propagating a different kind of child
A lung to purify Man’s noxious heat

Imagine them towering pines, dewy needles sturdy armature
Their arms will take after my arms
“Oh you have your mother’s arms they’ll say”

The bible of a patriarch
Clunks over and cries against my womb
I pick it off a leech
I’m not barren you’re barren
A land speculator wrote in you
“Go forth and subdue”

Every single day I pray
Cool down this earth that may melt away
Sow it in the ground
Seize the day
Every single day the grind
To keep together an effort that may soon unwind
Sow it in the ground
sow it in the ground
Row by row
Something in us that had overthrown now has overgrown
Now has overgrown

Dream about a Columbine that must be watered while you’re out of town
Shake the splayed cone of a White Pine just over an opening in the ground
Press the dirt around
The sea shore don’t lie
The Mississippi River doesn’t lie either
Your mom is not lying, she’ll send a hurricane if you’re not good!
She likes it this warm, not that warm
She’ll make New York City the new Atlantis
Her heart is the hot fizzling core of the world
I said of the world

I’m propagating a different kind of child
A lung to purify Man’s noxious heat
