letra de the orange monkey (demo) - pj harvey
a restlessness took hold my brain
and questions i could not hold back
an orange monkey on a chain
on a bleak uneven track
told me that to understand
you must travel back in time
i took a plane to a foreign land
and said, “i’ll write down what i find”
beneath a mountain’s jagged shelves
cloaked with snow and shadows sheer
plates tipped up upon themselves
the pain of fifty million years
and mules and goats were running wild
a happy chaos carried on
and old men and the young boys smiled
and worked until the day was gone
the packs of sandy-coloured dogs
walked streets that looked like building sites
but piles of rocks and dust and smog
could not block out a different light
when i returned i ran to meet
the monkey, but his face had changed
he stood before me on two feet
the track was now a motorway
