Half angel half eagle lyrics

Artist  : Jane siberry 
Song : Half angel half eagle
 
someone's mother falls to the sidewalk, on the
next street ssomeone looks up
in the cathedral a burst of laughter, in another
city the pigeons fly up and
  scatter
someone putdown in a new york subway, a newspaper
picked up in australia
for each event the inarticulate glory, the equal
and opposite will tell
  the story
HALF ANGEL HALF EAGLE ONE EYE ON THE WORLD
HALF ANGEL HALF EAGLE ONE EYE ON THE WORLD
be ready
5 intelligent minds huddled in a fancy
restaurant,
all that brain power bent on...what shall i? what
shall i?...
one lone car cruise the warehouse district
one lone figure shuffling along the wall
2 shadows leaning from the backseat window
someone's mother is about to fall
fuckinghonkyniggerjewwaspjapdagfag
fuckinghomelesspreacherdikecabbiefuckingunionscab
GET OUT GO BACK A STORM IS COMING
(a shudder in the colour of the warehouse wall)
HALF ANGEL HALF EAGLE ONE EYE ON THE WORLD
HALF ANGEL HALF EAGLE ONE EYE ON THE WORLD
be ready
     have a good time but don't relax
     have a good time but be on guard
     you don't need that much not that much
     get the wings up ready to go
     get the wings up ready to go
     what shall i? what shall i?
     a shudder in the colour of the warehouse
wall
