The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Swing low
In a dark glass hour
You turn and cower
See it turn to dust
Move on a stone dark night
We take to flight
Snowfall turns to rust
Seam in a fusing mine
Like a nursing rhyme
Fat man starts to fall
A year in a hostile place
I hear your face start to call
And if you think
That I've been losing my way
That's because I'm slightly blinded
And if you think
That I don't make too much sense
That's because I'm broken minded
Strong words
In a Ganges sky
I have to lie
Shadows move in pairs
Ring out from a bruised postcard
In the shooting yard
Looking through the tears
Out of a black slate time
We move in line
But never reach an end
Fall in a long stray town
As the ice comes round
River starts to bend
In a dark glass hour
You turn and cower
See it turn to dust
Move on a stone dark night
We take to flight
Snowfall turns to rust
Seam in a fusing mine
Like a nursing rhyme
Fat man starts to fall
A year in a hostile place
I hear your face start to call
And if you think
That I've been losing my way
That's because I'm slightly blinded
And if you think
That I don't make too much sense
That's because I'm broken minded
Strong words
In a Ganges sky
I have to lie
Shadows move in pairs
Ring out from a bruised postcard
In the shooting yard
Looking through the tears
Out of a black slate time
We move in line
But never reach an end
Fall in a long stray town
As the ice comes round
River starts to bend
Why They're Nonsensical:
Perversely, this is a great record, but the lyrics are enigmatic beyond belief. I mean, 'Snowfall turns to rust'? That assumes some iron component. Snowfall cannot turn to rust of its own accord. And 'I hear your face start to call'? Shurely 'mouth'? And 'nursing rhyme'? Shurely 'nursery rhyme'? And 'Fat man starts to fall'? Whaaa . . ?
