Lyrics

(Babydoctor - three ways of staring at the sun)

Thank you thank you babydoctor
Babydoctor thank you
And you count out the years you have been here
In this foreign land
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
Fourteen years here jalal jalal babydoctor
And you cound out the years you've been deprived
The use of your hand
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
Thirteen years stroke
Straggering walker it takes you two lights
To cross the street
Traffic is backed-up here at the place
Where cars and people meet
The very fast and the very slow
Beg for a ride and choke out a stream of words
As I drive
A mantra of thanks and counting out years that buries me alive
In the light of your humble and proud handful of
Mispronounced words
And I fall to my knees in the shade of a tree and
Cry thank you

I look into the sun until it blinds me
I look into the sun until I go blind
I am raped by the light of the light until I am the
Son of the sun
I am replaced

Hail and praise the all-seeing eye of pelton & crane
I open my mouth to the all-seeing eye of pelton & crane
Pelton & crane I am replaced
Thank you
