about
"Talisman and grievances culled within the cot." Serge Epskamp narrates a voyage of discovery, swooping gull-like around Frank’s territory on his/her isolated island in The Wasp Factory. In dedication to the writer Iain Banks.
lyrics
I flew out to the island and the storm blew off the sea
I took a flock and rode the wind and nested in the trees
The barren grass and sand dunes, an altar to the lost
Given up and given worth and laid to pay the cost
I just want this day to be over
Like a night you sleep right through
I just want this day to be over
Put the call out, man the crew
I found a little guide and she showed me where the treasure’s kept
In a case, inside the hide and warned the monster slept
The rocky pools and flood plain, and expanse you cannot claim
Rapids run and cover, stolen as it drains
I just want this day to be over
Like a night you sleep right through
I just want this day to be over
Put the call out, man the crew
And mementos are buried here
A commemorative spot
Talisman and grievances
Culled within the cot
Legends grow from stories
Distorted as they age
The sound mind seldom surfacing
Above the swelled up rage
I just want this day to be over
Like a night you sleep right through
I just want this day to be over
Put the call out, man the crew
I fancied some sweet morsel, claimed and taken like the air
No advantage, no free lunch, nothing’s given spare
The fallow fields lie resting, absorbing back all you that took
The roots of trees, felled and chipped, and pressed back in this book
I just want this day to be over
Like a night you sleep right through
I just want this day to be over
Put the call out, man the crew
