Jane Siberry - Half Angel Half Eagle Lyrics
someone's mother falls to the sidewalk, on the next street ssomeone looks up in the cathedral a burst of laughter, in another city the pigeons fly up and scatter someone putdown in a new york subway, a newspaper picked up in australia for each event the inarticulate glory, the equal and opposite will tell the story HALF ANGEL HALF EAGLE ONE EYE ON THE WORLD HALF ANGEL HALF EAGLE ONE EYE ON THE WORLD be ready 5 intelligent minds huddled in a fancy restaurant, all that brain power bent on...what shall i? what shall i?... one lone car cruise the warehouse district one lone figure shuffling along the wall 2 shadows leaning from the backseat window someone's mother is about to fall *****inghonkyniggerjewwaspjapdagfag *****inghomelesspreacherdikecabbie*****ingunionscab GET OUT GO BACK A STORM IS COMING (a shudder in the colour of the warehouse wall) HALF ANGEL HALF EAGLE ONE EYE ON THE WORLD HALF ANGEL HALF EAGLE ONE EYE ON THE WORLD be ready have a good time but don't relax have a good time but be on guard you don't need that much not that much get the wings up ready to go get the wings up ready to go what shall i? what shall i? a shudder in the colour of the warehouse wall
