letra de the thicket - david grubbs

Loading...

[verse 1]
to begin with, it’s a voice much like the one that last spoke
as an echo, it edits and it only tells half a joke
gap precedes the rejoinder; editorially, it’s cruel
statement comes back a question and the question returns a rule
you could set your watch to it if you didn’t care about the time

[chorus]
if you decide to level with the thicket
can you really play it, or do you just trick it?

[verse 2]
your learn not to mind the gaps; the rhythm is positively tidal
it renders up a presence in which silence returns as an idol
silence returns idling in a purr, idling like a delayed punch
or a line marking contours of a figure inescapably blunt

[chorus]
when you decide to level with the thicket
can you really play it, or do you just trick it?

[verse 3]
and then it’s our two voices estranged in non sequitur
jerks multiply as phrases divide along a higher form of humor
with two of us before the thicket, i answer you with a question
by definition, it returns in shards of gambit or just ambition

[break]
