Dodos And Dinosaurs Lyrics by Even Song

Evensong

0

Sitting out upon the terrace
Waited on by native hands
Watch the purple shadows spread
Like wings across your lands
And drift away into a daydream
Of a young and handsome man
In a military uniform
A long time, gone time
Before the world began
Sleeping in a twilight
That is red and white and blue
The dodo and the dinosaur
Are waiting for you
Great white God no one believes in
Gone away if Santa Claus
Missionary soldier boy
Now worn out by the wars
And by the cause that you believed in
When you took the black man’s land
You thought that you knew better
In the old days, the cold days
Before the world began
Sleeping in a twilight
That is red and white and blue
The dodo and the dinosaur
Are waiting for you
Empires melt and shadows lengthen
Banners hang on dusty walls
The master and the mistress
Bring the servant’s call
But no one comes and so you sit there
With your bible in your hand
Did it mean they hold a rifle
In the past years, fast years
Before the world began?
Sleeping in a twilight
That is red and white and blue
The dodo and the dinosaur
Are waiting for you
