Pigeon Song
London, did you have to take my child away? you buried him under rent and low pay. I've been cyling in circles round your empty streets. i've been searching in the pouring rain. I've been going alone to the cinema
I've been stealing all my food
from the electric avenue
now the pigeons gather
round my feeding hand. and we talk til the evening fades.
I have learnt how it goes what you wait for never shows
and what you least wanted
holds you down like a stone.
just like a stone.
Now i feed the birds. day after day.
only they can hear me pray for a lighter heart. a lighter load
to be moving. moving. moving my way home
