Chicken’s heaven could be a nice place
But there’s a white wolf there, said the puma
Get on my back and hold on tight
Dream some colorful wonders you crazy fire
Različite duše su pale na zemlju
(Various souls fell to the ground)
Neki su postali zmajevi, neki su postali ljubitelji zmajeva
(Some became dragons, some became the lovers of dragons)
Njihova deca su bila mistična stvorenja
(Their children were mystical creatures)
A sada moje čarobno dete puma zmaja
(And now my magical puma dragon child)
čini svet snjajim njegovim čudima
(makes the world shine with his wonders)
It’s brilliant, marvelous, gorgeous, even in the dream
It’s brilliant, marvelous, gorgeous, lighting up our being

Petoljubac
05:14
|

|
Samo jedna ljubav čini dva ljubavnika.
Ali dva plus tri ljubavi čine petoljubac
(Only one love makes two lovers. But two plus three loves make 5 kisses)

Ruža zna
Ruža zna zašto
Suptilne niti koje sudbina plete
Prilagodite njihovu snagu iza naših leđa
Ispravljanje naših posrtanja
Dok se ne zna nepoznato
Klatno koje visi preko peska
Stvara spirograf kada se kreće rukom čoveka
Ali haos zemljotresa će stvoriti savršenu ružu
(ENGLISH)
The rose knows
The rose knows why
The subtle threads that destiny weaves
Flex their strength behind our backs
Righting our stumbling ways
Until unknown becomes known
A pendulum dangling over a bed of sand
Makes spirographs when moved by the hand of man
But the chaos of an earthquake will create a perfect rose

Novi Sad

Arrived by train in Novi Sad
Our host Djordje put us on a bus
He rode behind us on his bicycle
He waved us off for the stop to the Yellow House
Novi Sad, so beautiful
Falling asleep to the strums of the tamburica orkestar
Silver tones floating up to the moon
On the Duna
Tito died, war was born
Djordje fled to Amsterdam
To drown his pain, he changed his course
Traded his bicycle for the white horse
Darkened minds, blackened skies
Will we ever above this rise?
Hate is a habit hard to break
When all is done for god's sake

Feather Weather

Did you coo hue?
Now no new views
Gone now, stilled life
Silent by violence
All that you taught us
Songs speech stories sound
You didn’t doubt us
Weathered feathers drop to the ground

Mercury in Retrograde
02:31
|
|||
|
Why this span of misfortune down on Earth?
Why is everything scrambled and spinning out of control?
It makes me curse, it's getting worse
I'm going burst at the end of this verse
O Mercury when you're in retrograde
The check will bounce and we won't be paid
Our travel plans to the north will suddenly go south
And we'd better closely watch what comes out of our mouths
Tits up again, my machine went tits up again
In between my fits of rage which go all the way to 10
Time is going backwards inside Big Ben
I prefer to leave the office and live in a glen
Away from the cockamamie inventions of men
O Mercury you've gone retrograde again
Better not to speak a plan or fly in a plane
O Mercury, when will this ever end?
Remind me not to hit 'Send'
I'll remain under the covers of my bed
Until I get the word from the front lines of the universe
that all is sane again

Steamy Ast Lag
01:53
|

I love you, truly do
For all the things you share
In our long love affair
A steamy ‘Ast Lag’ for you
Showing that our love is
And even if sometimes I’m blue
I will always love you

Venus Envy
02:54
|
|||
|
Venus envy what dicks can't see
Venus envy for power panties
Mothers bakers troublemakers
Super power to procreate hers
Movers and shakers
Venus rhymes with penis
Penis can you see us?
Romulus killed Remus
after suckling a she wolf
She wolf can redeem us
Romulus and Remus
Urge to kill extrem-us
Sticky cold wet dream-us

Wolf moon rising feel the sun
Wolf moon shadows on the run
Cedar branches write a tale
Wolf moon rising howling pale
Wolf moon rising turns blood red
Ancestors confiding the whispering dead
Cedar branches etch the light
Wolf moon turning red this night

Stickney The Crater
02:55
|
|||
|
My triple-great grandfather on my mother's side
Was a government astronomer by the name of Asaph Hall
He wanted to prove the existence of the moons of Mars
So he studied the skies every night with his fancy telescope
But saw nothing, nothing up there except for the Planet of War
And occasional shooting stars in front of the universe's door
Utterly frustrated, he almost threw in his glove
But his wife Angelina (nee Stickney) urged him to look above
In August of 1877 the moons of Mars revealed themselves to Asaph
who now suddenly loved his wife more than ever
He named the moons Phobos and Deimos after the horses who pulled the chariot of the War God
94 years later NASA's space craft passed by the moons
And saw the huge crater on Phobos' loins
So they named it after Asaph's intrepid wife, using her maiden name
Stickney the crater was almost greater than half the diameter of Phobos' parameters
Stickney the crater result of a fate or a destiny writ large by the universe

Artlessly Falling
by Mary Halvorson's Code Girl
supported by 8 fans who also own “Amy Denio: Eureka”
Mary Halvorson is a genius composer and guitarist who has developed her own musical language, and with Code Girl she has incorporated poetry into that language. Incredible compositions and lyricism (each track is a different kind of poem). Halvorson's playing is as great as usual, and all the other members of the band sound great. Robert Wyatt's singing in particular works extremely well in the tracks he's featured. Highly, highly recommend.

A Beautiful Western Saddle
by Curlew
supported by 8 fans who also own “Amy Denio: Eureka”
This album isn't genre-bending, it's genre-defying. I have to admit, that I'm not familiar with Curlew oeuvre, but normally they seem to be much more avantgardy whereas this album is song based and full of melodies. But keep in mind that these are genre-defying songs ;-)
