Tiny Ruins
Straw Into Gold
When you got home from workYou just lay on your bedWent through your pagesSome things don't make senseGot to be solid to hold swayUnsoldered to win the dayYou're a soldier, it's okayTell yourself it's okaySpinning straw into goldStraw into goldStraw into goldAll the maritime pinesFor sails on the horizonClosing down playsI almost bought the mandolinIlluminous squidAnd the knife-wielding fishermenStationary sharkMandarin trees ladenSpinning straw into goldStraw into goldStraw into gold"That's rich coming from you," he said"You're impossible."Letras de cancionesIn his long oil skin coatI said, "You're no picnic neitherNow you're no picnic neither"But the day is loudeningAnd I don't believe itThe banks have all brokenTo cash all our chips inFreddy gave us his adviceSlinging spirits to cubes of iceSays we're lumps of molassesSinging out of our assesSpinning straw into goldStraw into goldStraw into goldGoldStraw into goldAnd I got old and I needWild animals got youAnd there's nothing more I'd likeThan to have you in the roomBut the din here is loudeningAnd I don't believe itStrange behind everything And it's just a matterOf lovingSpinning straw into goldStraw into goldStraw into goldGoldStraw into goldGoldStraw into gold
