Testo Taking In the View - Uncle Lucius
Testo della canzone Taking In the View (Uncle Lucius), tratta dall'album The Light
The devil's in the detail shop waiting on his old ragtop
Wonderin' where the hell have all the real souls gone
It's been so long since the reaping's worth a damn
Little Mary's livin' hand to mouth
Can't believe how fast it all went south
Takin' pains to conceive of an immaculate life
But Jesus Christ, it sure gets hard sometimes
And the bright morning star just left Chicago
He's headed down to Asheville, Carolina via Ohio
They got a rich four-season climate
And a ridge of mountains blue
And he's gonna spend his golden years
Taking in the view
Ever since Joseph passed away
The lady hasn't had too much to say
You can find her kneelin' in the garden
All skin and bones
And when seeds have grown
She'll plant again
Last time the market fell
Satan had to sell off half of hell
Now it's all suburban sprawl and big-box stores
Well, he can't be sure, but this might be the end
And the bright morning star just left Chicago
He's headed down to Asheville, Carolina via Ohio
He's got a stack of classic vinyl
And a turntable to boot
And he's gonna spend his golden years
Takin' in the view
And he'll sing
I shall be released
And I've got a woman over town who's good to me
Walkin' the floor
And do-do-do, lookin' out my back door
Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in a church where a wedding's been
Not gonna hear that train a-coming around the bend
And the bright morning star just left Chicago
He's headed down to Asheville, Carolina via Ohio
They got a rich four-season climate there
And a ridge of mountains blue
And he's gonna spend his golden years
Takin' in the view
