lyrics

Cue sunrise, a new day, a pang of longing for something old
and where have you gone?
The gypsies have arrived with their dancing and their song
and where have you gone?
What new word have they brought with them, what new enchantment to share,
and where have you gone?
Will they all be as impressed as the rest of us with your little, golden fish
and where have you gone?

Cue sunset, an old day, a pang of longing for something new
and where have you gone?
The third-coming has arrived with its railroad of broken dreams
and where have you gone?
I see you there, flicking through your encyclopaedia, making words up as you go
and where have you gone?
Will they all be as impressed as the rest of us with your gold-leaf chamber pot
and where have you gone?

Songs off this first work would appear in a handful of independent films and had him playing alongside his heroes. Now Dirt Hand is back with a new, deeper concept and a ferocious, improv-based band process. ... more
