His father died and him a little farm in New England All the long black cars left the scene And the boy was just standin' alone Lookin' at the shiny red Him and his daddy to sit inside And circle the blue fields and the night
It was as if had spread butter On all the fine points of the 'Cause he looked up, they started to slip Then he put his head in the of his arms
And he started to drift, drift to the belly of a Let the ship slide and he went inside of it And saw his 'hind the control boards beads of light He saw his daddy the control board And he was very tonight 'Cause he was not human, he was not
The little boy's face lit up such a naked joy That the sun around his lids And his were like two suns White lids, opals, seein' everything Just a bit too clearly
And he around and There was no black ship in No black cars, nothin' Except for him, the And on his knees and Looked up and out
"No, Daddy, leave me here alone Take me up, Daddy, to the belly of ship Let the ship slide open and go inside of it you are not human, you are not human"
But nobody heard the cry of alarm Nobody there 'cept for the Around the New farm And gathered in all directions Like roses scattered
And they were compass grass Coming together into the of a shaman bouquet Slit in his and all the others went shootin' And he saw the of traffic beckonin' him Like the hands of Grabbin' at his cheeks, takin' out his All his limbs, was twisted and he said
I give up, won't give up, don't let me give up I won't give up, come here, let me go up Take me up quick, take me up, up to the of a ship" And the slides open and I go inside of it Where I am not
I am helium raven and this is mine So he cried out as he the sky Pushin' it all out latex cartoon Am I all alone in generation? We'll just be dreamin' of animation and day And let up, won't let up and I see them comin' in Oh, I couldn't hear before, but I hear 'em now
It's a scope in all silver and all platinum lights Movin' in like black ships, they movin' in, streams of them And he put up his hands and he said, me, it's me give you my eyes, take me up, oh Lord, please take me up I'm helium, raven waitin' for you, please me up leave me here"
The son, the sign, the the shape of a tortured woman The shape of a tortured woman The mother standing in the doorway, lettin' her No presidents but prophets all dreamin', they're gonna bear the prophet
He's run through the fields dreamin' in animation all gonna split his skull It's gonna come out like a black bouquet Like a fist that's gonna shoot up Like light, like boxer
Take up up up up up up Oh, let's go up, up, don't me back Take me up, go up, I'm goin' up, I'm goin' up Take me up, I'm goin' up, go up, tell Go up go up go up go up up up up up up up Up, up, to the of a ship Let the slide open and we'll go inside of it Well, we are not human, we're not
Well, there was sand, there tiles The sun had melted the And it like a river of glass When it hardened, he looked at the He saw his face and where there were Were just two white opals, two white
Where there eyes, there were just two white opals He up and the rays shot And he saw raven in And he crawled on his back and he up Up up up up up up
