Petrified Forest – Captain Beefheart – letras

Human BarkBeautyless hide from beautyBow your eyes ‘n heads to the duty of the dead’sSuck the groundBreathe life into the dead dinosaursLet the past demons rear up ‘n belch fire in the air of nowThe rug’s wearing out that we walk onSonn it will fray ‘n we’ll dropDead into yesterdayMust the breathing pay for those who breathe in ‘n don’tBreathe outThere’d be no gain, brothers, if no one would play’n for your games count me n’ all that can see,Breathe in ‘n out hungry today ‘n eat hearty tomorrowOr eat away ‘n be eaten some dayNo seed shall sow in salt waterIf the dinosaur cries with blood in his eyesIn the dinosaur cries with blood in his eyes’n eats our babies for our liesBelches fire in our skiesMaybe I’ll die but he’ll be rumbling throughYour petrified forest
