New Noise
You can’t
make any new noise
upset the cart when there are still plenty of trips to be made
from the orchard to the duck house
(Keep it up and we’ll be in our right minds to say
no more rackets or rumblings in basements
can get you punished severely by people less kind)
so we’ll bury that attitude like seeds in the ground.
Of course you can’t
step out your front door in the wrong colours
(In all honesty people who do
I think they should be rounded up and
given a stern talking to try to change their point of view
keep that kind of thing in the bag and the bag in the river.)
And here you simply cannot
raise a peach to your mouth and eat to the stone
in polite company
(Your consumption
sick filth it’s of great concern to us.)
The second thing we live by is
Can’t will keep the candle burning
(with no eating the wrong way
then no wrong colours
then no new noise)
keep everything nice and warm and dry
your house your health your job your bob.
(With your help we’ll kill everything
You and I, we’ll kill everything
We will kill everything
We kill everything.)
