Bruce *****burn - Get Up Jonah Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • I woke up thinking about Turkish drummers
  • It didn't take long: I don't know much about Turkish drummers
  • But it made me think of Germany
  • And the guy who sold me cigarettes
  • Who'd been in the Afghan secret police
  • Who made the observation
  • That it's hard... to live
  • Then I was reminded of the proprietor of a Vietnamese restaurant in Quebec
  • Who used to be head of the secret police in Danang
  • And it occurred to me I was thinking about all this stuff to keep from
  • thinking about something else
  • Isn't that just what secret police are all about now?
  • Somebody stands at a window
  • Watches the river roll
  • Trains rumble in the foreground
  • With the weight of approaching dawn
  • Flames from the refinery
  • Rise broken-red and riveting
  • And the high vault of heaven
  • Looks far away and cold
  • There's a howling in the factory yard
  • There's a pounding in my head
  • I'm swollen up with unshed tears
  • Bloated like the dead
  • (Instrumental break)
  • Blood and ashes
  • Time burning
  • On the skyline dark against the stars
  • A solitary horseman
  • Waiting
  • Lashed to the wheel
  • Ripping in the storm
  • Get up, Jonah
  • It's your time to be born
  • Get up Jonah
  • It's your time to be born
