Astronomy - Live 1979
The clock strikes 12 and moon drops burst
Out at you from their hiding place
Like acid and oil on a madman's face
His reasons tend to fly away
Like lesser birds on the four winds
Like silver scrapes in May
Now the sands become a crust
And most of you have gone away
Come, Susy dear, let's take a walk
Just out there upon the beach
I know you'll soon be married
And you want to know where the wind comes from
But it's never said at all
On the map that Carrie reads
Behind the clock, back there you know
At the four winds bar
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Four winds at the four winds bar
Two doors locked and windows barred
One doors let to take you in
The other one just mirrors it
Hey, hey, hey
In hellish glare and inference
The other one's a duplicate
The queenly flux, eternal light
Or the light that never warms
The light that never, never warms
Or the light that never, never warms
Never warms, never warms
The clock strikes twelve and moon drops burst
Out at you from their hiding place
Miss Carrie nurse and Suzy dear
Would find themselves at the four winds bar
It's the nexus of the crisis
And the origin of storms
Just the place to hopelessly
Encounter time and then came me
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Call me Desdenova, eternal light
These gravely digs of mine will surely prove a sight
And don't forget my dog, fixed and consequent
Astronomy, a star
Astronomy, a star
Astronomy, a star
Astronomy, a star
Out at you from their hiding place
Like acid and oil on a madman's face
His reasons tend to fly away
Like lesser birds on the four winds
Like silver scrapes in May
Now the sands become a crust
And most of you have gone away
Come, Susy dear, let's take a walk
Just out there upon the beach
I know you'll soon be married
And you want to know where the wind comes from
But it's never said at all
On the map that Carrie reads
Behind the clock, back there you know
At the four winds bar
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Four winds at the four winds bar
Two doors locked and windows barred
One doors let to take you in
The other one just mirrors it
Hey, hey, hey
In hellish glare and inference
The other one's a duplicate
The queenly flux, eternal light
Or the light that never warms
The light that never, never warms
Or the light that never, never warms
Never warms, never warms
The clock strikes twelve and moon drops burst
Out at you from their hiding place
Miss Carrie nurse and Suzy dear
Would find themselves at the four winds bar
It's the nexus of the crisis
And the origin of storms
Just the place to hopelessly
Encounter time and then came me
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Call me Desdenova, eternal light
These gravely digs of mine will surely prove a sight
And don't forget my dog, fixed and consequent
Astronomy, a star
Astronomy, a star
Astronomy, a star
Astronomy, a star
