"Cornucopia" lyrics

"Cornucopia"

I loved you in the sunshine
You chase the moon with a spear

Tardy afternoons in utopia
Kiss an ugly turtle and make it cry
Sever the head of cornucopia
We rape the Earth and don't know why it strikes

Do you believe in stormy weather, stormy weather?
Hurricanes play musical chairs with homes and chattel
The whirling dervish tornadoes reek all disaster
Seesaw tsunamis give and take, what's the matter?

I loved you in the sunshine
You chase the moon with a spear
I pray that you will be all mine
You foam at the mouth and disappear

Sever the head of cornucopia
We fuck the Earth and don't know why it cries

Do you believe in stormy weather, stormy weather?
Hurricanes play musical chairs with homes and chattel
The whirling dervish tornadoes reap all disaster
Seesaw tsunamis give and take, what's the matter?

I loved you in the sunshine
You chase the moon with a spear
I pray that you will be all mine
You foam at the mouth and disappear

We broke our pact
And away we go to another place
Home, where we call home
Why do we disfigure all the things that are so beautiful inside?
Where we compose the calamities for all to abide
Microcosm, macrocosm are the same
What a lame game
Don't you think we're extraordinary?
Believing and seeing
Realizing the imaginary
(Don't you? Don't you?)
Yes, I think we're extraordinary
Being and living
Yes, I think we ought to marry
We broke our pact
And away we go to another place

I loved you in the sunshine
You chase the moon with a spear
I pray that you will be all mine
You foam at the mouth and disappear
