Grey whistles spoke shrilly Of wishes never seen As I sought a hobby that ne'er Grovelled to'r machine I saw those moor harpies asleep in their crow There was a sentence lying dormant in me Without much more than history lessons To go forth was a hefty sentence Making conversation pieces Of the rocks I met along the way And I hoped that one day I might Be there for the rise And fall of 10p states To sentence them to mutiny Silly, shrilly and ne'er hopeful But at least not airborne, at least rooted In hobbies gainst the machine What a terrible lot, indeed What a lot of terrible days Ah, well At the running track I feel The sentence dormant in me Bolt upright, turning the grey On its head, as harpies fall Into the earth and the stars come down for me

Sentence
Grey whistles spoke shrilly Of wishes never seen As I sought a hobby that ne'er Grovelled to'r machine I saw those moor harpies asleep in their crow There was a sentence lying dormant in me Without much more than history lessons To go forth was a hefty sentence Making conversation pieces Of the rocks I met along the way And I hoped that one day I might Be there for the rise And fall of 10p states To sentence them to mutiny Silly, shrilly and ne'er hopeful But at least not airborne, at least rooted In hobbies gainst the machine What a terrible lot, indeed What a lot of terrible days Ah, well At the running track I feel The sentence dormant in me Bolt upright, turning the grey On its head, as harpies fall Into the earth and the stars come down for me
