  • 作词 : Kaye, Kral, Smith, Sohl
    His father died and left him a little farm in New England
    All the long black funeral cars left the scene
    And the boy was just standin' there alone
    Lookin' at the shiny red tractor
    Him and his daddy used to sit inside
    And circle the blue fields and grease the night
    It was as if someone had spread butter
    On all the fine points of the stars
    'Cause when he looked up, they started to slip
    Then he put his head in the crux of his arms
    And he started to drift, drift to the belly of a ship
    Let the ship slide open and he went inside of it
    And saw his daddy 'hind the control boards
    Streamin' beads of light
    He saw his daddy 'hind the control board
    And he was very different tonight
    'Cause he was not human, he was not human
    The little boy's face lit up with such a naked joy
    That the sun burned around his lids
    And his eyes were like two suns
    White lids, white opals, seein'
    Everything iust a little bit too clearly
    And he looked around and there was no black ship in sight
    No black funeral cars, nothin' except for him, the raven
    And fell on his knees and
    Looked up and cried out
    "No, Daddy, don't leave me here alone
    Take me up, Daddy, to the belly of your ship
    Let the ship slide open and I'll go inside of it
    Where you are not human, you are not human"
    But nobody heard the boy's cry of alarm
    Nobody there 'cept for the birds
    Around the New England farm
    And they gathered in all directions
    Like roses they scattered
    And they were like compass grass
    Coming together into the head of a shaman bouquet
    Slit in his nose and all the others went shootin'
    And he saw the lights of traffic beckonin' him
    Like the hands of blake
    Grabbin' at his cheeks, takin' out his neck
    All his limbs, everything was twisted and he said
    I won't give up, won't give up, don't let me give up
    I won't give up, come here, let me go up fast
    Take me up quick, take me up, up to the belly of a ship"
    And the ship slides open and I go inside of it
    Where I am not human
    I am helium raven and this movie is mine
    So he cried out as he stretched the sky
    Pushin' it all out like latex cartoon
    Am I all alone in this generation?
    We'll just be dreamin' of animation night and day
    And won't let up, won't let up and I see them comin' in
    Oh, I couldn't hear them before, but I hear 'em now
    It's a radar scope in all silver and all platinum lights
    Movin' in like black ships, they were movin' in, streams of them
    And he put up his hands and he said, it's me, it's me
    I'll give you my eyes, take me up, oh Lord, please take me up
    I'm helium, raven waitin' for you, please take me up
    Don't leave me here"
    The son, the sign, the cross
    Like the shape of a tortured woman
    The true shape of a tortured woman
    The mother standing in the doorway, lettin' her sons
    No longer presidents but prophets
    They're all dreamin', they're gonna bear the prophet
    He's gonna run through the fields dreamin' in animation
    It's all gonna split his skull
    It's gonna come out like a black bouquet shinin'
    Like a fist that's gonna shoot them up
    Like light, like Mohammed boxer
    Take them up up up up up up
    Oh, let's go up, up, don't hold me back
    Take me up, I'll go up, I'm goin' up, I'm goin' up
    Take me up, I'm goin' up, I'll go up, tell
    Go up go up go up go up up up up up up up
    Up, up, to the belly of a ship
    Let the ship slide open and we'll go inside of it
    Well, we are not human, we're not human
    Well, there was sand, there were tiles
    The sun had melted the sand
    And it coagulated like a river of glass
    When it hardened, he looked at the surface
    He saw his face and where there were eyes
    Were just two white opals, two white opals
    Where there were eyes, there were just two white opals
    He looked up and the rays shot
    And he saw raven comin' in
    And he crawled on his back and he went up
    Up up up up up up
    Sha da do wop, da sha da do way
    Sha da do wop, da sha da do way
    Sha da do wop, da sha da do way
    Sha da do wop, da sha da do way
    Shaman do wop, da shaman do way
    We like birdland
