letter from abroad - john cale lyrics
it’s a squalid little town with a tenuous beauty
the cool wet mornings are so appealing
people waking up suddenly in the night
very disappointed
at the water’s edge fishermen smashing their boats – taking nothing for granted in a few hours the heat will hang over town as the northeast monsoon comes roaring in can you feel it?
afghanistan afghanistan whatever happened to you
i don’t really care but i thought i’d ask in case it mattered to you – let me hear it
they’re cutting their heads of in the soccer field
stretching their necks in the goal
taking them out in the elephant gr-ss feeding them to the hyena’s don’t you hear it
everybody’s lips are thin – eventually eyes are empty
this a letter from abroad life is cheaper back home
let me hear it
you learn form novels living out there rainfall is followed by thunder you hear a man’s voice soothing and calm – ‘i understand no problem’
