Testo The Tower - Julian Cope
Testo della canzone The Tower (Julian Cope), tratta dall'album Jehovahkill (Deluxe Edition)
I came alive in a prehistoric time
Beside a sacred shrine, beside a roadside
I looked around, then I broke down and cried
It was my first time as a man
An extra length I did not understand
Forces of darkness wrestled control of the land
Then women came riding
Then women came riding
Then women came riding
Oh, they did not understand
They looked at me as an ordinary man
They looked at me and they saw only trouble
We look at you and we see only trouble
The goddess dreams and she sees only trouble
I scream, "Please let me run with you
I will ride in shackles if you'll only take me away
From the forces of darkness that have turned my life upside down
Oh, the state my house is in"
And chains, they bore me away
Yes, in chains they bore me away
Till time passed, and winters passed
And winters were cold, and winters were long
And summers were beautiful
And summers were beautiful
Until I was old, I was very old
And I was an elder of the tribe
I was an accepted elder of a female tribe
For I was trusted, trusted
For I was trusted, trusted then
The Goddess did ascend to me through pure white light
Delivered into me from her divine heavens
To my temple between my eyes
And as the goddess poured into me in purest female energy
I felt reflected in the moonlight a sudden strange feeling of nausea
A sickness creeping upon me as of a war of the genders
Since I was appalled by all things female
And I shake, my male self stood up bold and ready to battle
I could not rescue the night from the male sunrise
Couldn't rescue the night from the male sunrise
Couldn't rescue the night from the male sunrise
I could not rescue the night from the male sunrise
Couldn't rescue the night from the male sunrise
Couldn't rescue the night from the male sunrise
I could not rescue the night from the male sunrise
I could not rescue the night from the male sunrise
