nakhla dog - meursault lyrics

with a heart of sand and a head of coal
oh, nakhla dog, oh, nakhla dog
and who would have noticed
and who would have known you
nakhla dog, oh, nakhla dog

you be the meteor and i’ll be the ground below
you be the chainsaw and i will be the pine
and with a flash of paint across my waist
i will be waiting with my head on fire

and all at once, like ashes in the moment
oh, nakhla dog, oh, nakhla dog

you be the meteor and i’ll be the ground below
you be the chainsaw and i will be the pine
and with a flash of paint across my waist
i will be waiting with my head on fire
and i will be waiting with a wagging tail

(spoken:
the nakhla meteorite fell to earth on june 28th, 1911, at approximately 9 am in egypt. several explosions were heard before it fell to earth, landing in an area 4.5 kilometers in diameter, with around 40 pieces being recovered. the fragments were buried in the ground up to a meter deep. one fragment was said to have landed on a dog, as observed by a local farmer, vaporizing the animal instantly. since no remains of the dog were recovered, and there were no other eyewitnesses to the dog’s demise, this story remains apocryphal. however, the story of the nakhla dog has since become something of a legend among astronomers.)
