Testo Façade: No. 17, Yodelling Song - Orchestra of the Swan
Testo della canzone Façade: No. 17, Yodelling Song (Orchestra of the Swan), tratta dall'album Sir William Walton: A Centenary Celebration
We bear velvet cream, green and babyish
Small leaves seem each stream, horses' tails that swish
And the chimes remind us of sweet birds singing
Like the jangling bells on rose trees ringing
Man must say farewells to parents now
And to William Tell and Mrs. Pauw
Man must say farewells to stocks and bets
And to roses, bells, and statuettes
Forests white and black, in spring abloom
With forget-me-nots, and to lovers true
Still the sweet bird begs and tries to cozen them
By angels' eggs sold by the dozen
Gone are clouds like inns on the garden's brinks
And the mountain gins Ganymede sells drinks
While the daysink grey, and his heart of ice
Grey as chamois or the edelweiss
And the mountain streams like cowbells sound
Tillere, tillere! drowned in the waiter's dreams
Who has gone beyond the forest waves
While his true and fond ones seek their graves
