[00:18.31]A restlessness took hold my brain
[00:22.00]And questions
[00:23.25]I could not hold back
[00:26.04]An orange monkey on a chain
[00:29.53]
[00:30.10]On a bleak uneven track
[00:33.51]
[00:34.18]Told me that to understand
[00:38.11]You must travel back time
[00:42.04]I took a plane to a forein land
[00:45.98]And said
[00:46.49]I'll write down what I find
[00:52.48]
[01:02.35]Beneath a mountain's jagged shelves
[01:05.64]
[01:06.16]Cloacked with snow and shadows sheer
[01:09.61]
[01:10.14]Plates tipped up upon themselves
[01:14.18]The pain of fifty million years
[01:18.07]And mules and goats were running wild
[01:22.06]A happy chaos carried on
[01:25.86]And old men and young boys smiled
[01:30.10]And worked until the day was gone
[01:37.26]
[01:46.38]Packs of sandy-coloured dogs
[01:50.08]Walked streets that looked like building sites
[01:53.50]
[01:54.11]But piles of rocks and dust and smog
[01:58.02]Could not hold block out a different light
[02:02.01]When I returned
[02:03.98]I ran to meet
[02:05.95]The monkey but his face had changed
[02:10.04]He stood before me on two feet
[02:13.99]The track was now a motorway
