The Ascent Of Man
album: around the sun


so hesitation pulled me back
i'm stronger when i don't attract
in your eyes i'm a lamb without a rack
and i am getting confused
i'm a cactus trying to be a canoe
as you pan for ore
in the desert, floored
i say to you
that i could never imagine a place so beautiful
i could never steal your gold away.
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah...
[i try to walk like a big wham bam
i came across like a battering ram
i try to float like a telegram sam
i'm trying to divine you.]
my book is called "the ascent of man"
i marked your chapter with a catamaran
the accent's off
but i am what i am
i looked for you, it's my last grandstand
a motorscootered goat legged pan
figure eighting in quicksand ...
i'm so in love i don't attract
and with my hands tied i won't crack
