• Biting Your Tail

May your eyes be wide and seeing
May you learn from the view where your kneeling
Know the fear of the world that your feeling
Its the fear of a Slave

May you know how the fight was started
Won as much from the snake as the garden
Wear them both like a glove
That you can't wain

May your mouth betray your wisdom
May you get what they fail to mention
May your love be your only religion
Preach it to us all

May you lose what you are for gladly
May you worship the time and its passing
Stars won't ever wait for you
To watch them fall

We're the smoke on a burnt horizon
We're the boat on a tide thats rising
Both the post and the pig you're untying
Butcher gone for the blade

Someday we may all be happy
Someday I'll make a face worth slapping
Someday we may be shocked to be laughing
At the way we behaved

May your hands be strong and willing
May you know when to speak and to listen
May you find every friend that your missing
There's no checking the mail

May you end up bruised and purple
Know that peace is the shape of a circle
Cause round and round you'll go
Biting your tail

Little children the wind is whipping
Short hands on the clock still ticking
Both the egg and the red fox grinning
Their belly full for the day

Someday we may all want nothing
And all forget that we'll get whats coming
Someday I'll say the world was something
That we just couldn't change

May your tongue be something wicked
Know your part in the calf and the killing
see straight through the captain your kissing
helm loose in his hand

May your words be well worth stealing
Put your hand on your heart when your singing
The choir sick of the song
But they still gotta stand
