    COEXIST (I Will Bless The Lord At All Times?)

    COEXIST (I Will Bless The Lord At All Times?) U2 "Am I the best or the worst or the worst of the best?" she sang Ice cream smile wide as a mile back then "Say a nice prayer, be a good girl, finger on my lips" When she returned her lipstick had learned how not to kiss I can't fix her, can only love her Can't keep her pocket full I can't keep her face in smiles Someone's stolen what was beautiful I can't sing her home to me in rhymes But I will bless the Lord at all times Bless the Lord at all times I will bless the Lord at all times I will bless I will bless the Lord at all times I will bless the Lord I will bless the Lord at all times Every night we hope and pray for a new day to rise Every morning when the sun shows up it's still a surprise Any child is every child in any mother's eyes I will bless the Lord I will bless the Lord at all times I will bless the Lord at all times I will bless the Lord I will bless the Lord at all times That child you hear has been crying for years in the wilderness A child without armour had no hatred to harbour, only loveliness The driver of the ambulance unpacks his shirt pressed and neat To honour the hurt and the hungry he will later greet There's not so much road left here and no road signs Drones hover without any consciousness over war crimes I will bless the Lord at all times? The tide is rising, all ships are sinking New poets must despise all old ways of thinking Whoever made language must've been drinking Twenty-six characters own all the ink and printing I got so many words in my head but I can't find the lines I will bless the Lord at all times Changes, these changes Will rain on this parade Changes, these changes I am not afraid No one there to write it down But when the prophet came around Said "I've a stranger with me In the fight none can compare But food and shelter we share Beloved community" Every night we hope and pray for a new day to rise Every morning when the sun shows up, it's still a surprise Any child is every child in any mother's eyes I will bless the Lord I will bless the Lord at all times I will bless the Lord at all times I will bless the Lord I will bless the Lord at all times Changes, these changes Will rain on this parade Changes, these changes I am not afraid The pages that enrage us She tears them from the book "Save us, save us" sings the girl of Guadalupe

    Thrasher

    Thrasher Neil Young They were hiding behind hay bales They were planting in the full moon They had given all they had for something new But the light of day was on them They could see the thrashers coming And the water shone like diamonds in the dew And I was just getting up, hit the road before it's light Trying to catch an hour on the sun When I saw those thrashers rolling by Looking more than two lanes wide I was feelin' like my day had just begun Where the eagle glides, descending There's an ancient river bending Through the timeless gorge of changes Where sleeplessness awaits I searched out my companions Who were lost in crystal canyons When the aimless blade of science Slashed the pearly gates It was then that I knew I'd had enough Burned my credit card for fuel Headed out to where the pavement turns to sand With a one way ticket to the land of truth And my suitcase in my hand How I lost my friends, I still don't understand They had the best selection They were poisoned with protection There was nothing that they needed Nothing left to find They were lost in rock formations Or became park bench mutations On the sidewalks and in the stations They were waiting, waiting So I got bored and left them there They were just dead weight to me Better down the road without that load Brings back the time when I was eight or nine I was watchin' my mama's TV It was that great Grand Canyon rescue episode Where the vulture glides, descending On an asphalt highway bending Through libraries and museums, galaxies and stars Down the windy halls of friendship To the rose clipped by the bullwhip The motel of lost companions Waits with heated pool and bar But me I'm not stopping there Got my own row left to hoe Just another line in the field of time When the thrasher comes, I'll be stuck in the sun Like the dinosaurs in shrines But I'll know the time has come To give what's mine
