Petrified Forest - Lyrics - Captain Beefheart And The Magic Band

Human Bark Beautyless hide from beauty Bow your eyes 'n heads to the duty of the dead's Suck the ground Breathe life into the dead dinosaurs Let the past demons rear up 'n belch fire in the air of now The rug's wearing out that we walk on Sonn it will fray 'n we'll drop Dead into yesterday Must the breathing pay for those who breathe in 'n don't Breathe out There'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 tomorrow Or eat away 'n be eaten some day No seed shall sow in salt water If the dinosaur cries with blood in his eyes In the dinosaur cries with blood in his eyes 'n eats our babies for our lies Belches fire in our skies Maybe I'll die but he'll be rumbling through Your petrified forest Andante:odeecology
