• All This and Alice

All This and Alice borrows a turn of phrase from Robin Williamson / The Incredible String Band - just one more twist on a skein of debts owed to that source.
lyrics
Hail to the howling wind;
To the rushing rain;
To the flowing stream;
That carries the stars within each tiny grain.

Hail to the impure blood;
From the twisted roots
Through the purest hearts
That tasted the juice of Babel’s forgotten fruit.

Hail to the snowy peaks;
To the hammered storm;
To the single eye
That sees the dead sow and the living go to war.

Hail to the desert sun;
To the swirling sand;
To the lonely men
Who write divine words all with a mortal hand.

Hail to the calling crows
With their songs of life
Made from words of death
And hail to the ghosts who dance for days on end.

Alice is a long time gone my friend.
Alice is a long time gone.
Oz is very far away my friend.
Alice is a long time gone.
We shall have no home under the sun.
Alice is a long time gone.
Until we braid our hair as one my friend.
Alice is a long time gone.
Drink under the moon with me my friend.
Alice is a long time gone.
Listen to the owl so far away.
Alice is a long time gone.
