Broken Manhole Cover Lyrics by Remainder

Evensong

2023

[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Because summer had been and gone
The coolest in living memory
We sat in a greenhouse
Eating immature peppers
Watching cardinal spider
Repairing it's web
[Chorus, Neil Arthur, Finlay Shakespeare]
You said, moving closer, I remember you said
Broken man hole (cover)
Dead man's suit (cover)
Dead man's suit (cover)
Broken manhole (cover)
[Verse 2]
The wedding day came and went
Nobody mentioned
Before nor after
The date passed invisible, еrased
Affected by local amnеsia
Watching cardinal spider
Repairing its' web
[Chorus, Neil Arthur, Finlay Shakespeare]
You said, moving closer, I remember you said
Broken man hole (cover)
Dead man's suit (cover)
Dead man's suit (cover)
Broken manhole (cover)
[Verse 3, Neil Arthur]
All the leaves are turning
This way and that
Chlorophyll molecules failing
Sap is receding
It wasn't hard to recall the calcium build-up
It wasn't hard to recall stalactites build down
[Chorus, Neil Arthur, Neil Arthur & Finlay Shakespeare]
You said, moving closer, I remember you said
(Down, down, down, down)
Broken man hole (cover) (Down, down)
Dead man's suit (cover) (Down, down)
Dead man's suit (cover) (Down, down)
Broken manhole (cover) (Down, down)
Down, down, down

[Instrumental]
[Chorus, Neil Arthur, Neil Arthur & Finlay Shakespeare]
You said, moving closer, I remember you said
(Down, down, down, down)
Broken man hole (cover) (Down, down)
Dead man's suit (cover) (Down, down)
Dead man's suit (cover) (Down, down)
Broken manhole (cover)
[Outro, Neil Arthur, Neil Arthur & Finlay Shakespeare]
Down, down, down
