ant eating matriarch - flying fox and the hunter gatherers lyrics
[chorus]
do not try to step around the unpleasantness
when she dies they’ll cut her open all the way
then they’ll put her in the freezer
but when they put her in the ground
when they put her in the ground
she will rise up a new creation
[verse 1]
under your feet love
that’s where this really happened
down in the dirt and the soil and the clay
that’s where the dust comes from
down below the city floor
another city’s growing up
and the image of your rotting matriarchs
deep beneath your feet
[verse 2]
what kind of place is this?
a temple for broken bodies?
through the walls and the roof and floor
come the mouths of revision
these aching cells must be rebuilt
re-ordered for that higher purpose
your flesh will be the bricks
your bricks the city deep beneath your feet
[interlude]
[bridge 1]
ochi chyornye, ochi zhguchie
ochi strastnye i prekrasnye
kak lyublyu ya vas, kak boyus’ ya vas
znat’ uvidel vas ya ne v dobryi chas
ochi chyornye, ochi plamenny
i manyat oni v strany dal’nye
gde tsarit lyubov’, gde tsarit pokoi
gde stradan’ya nyet, gde vrazhdy zapryet
ochi chyornye, ochi zhguchie
ochi strastnye i prekrasnye
kak lyublyu ya vas, kak boyus’ ya vas
znat’ uvidel vas ya ne v dobryi chas
[verse 3]
somewhere there’s a muscle at war
with the fugal frontier
lay your hand starts
freed from time, freed from age
flow through the battered branches
and my palms and fingertips
laid again, re-worked, re-written
never finished
never still
[chorus]
and oh, the unpleasantness
when she dies they’ll cut her open all the way
but when they put her in the ground
when they put her in the ground
she will rise up a new creation
[verse 4]
myriad, beating wings
no freedom is the true tempest
mother find a foothold
find a safer place to harbor
find a quiet center
and build a-fresh your holy faculties, oh i-
[outro]
when i come back from the dust
you’ll gather up my pieces
keep me, keep me safe inside you
pull me back into the belly
of the earth
