Coney Fiery Island Blues 7-20-07

[moderately fast in F]

all the sweetness in the world at our back
to the shore for a night of who knows what
little angels skipping wildly across the sand
to the thump of an anarchist marching band

friendly mob reclaims the streets
hoopening in flames on the beach
break from the culture of fear
to the tune of a beautiful anarchist marching band

[bridge]
fake angels are beautiful tonight
silhouetted by dazzling wonderwheel light
skipping wildly across the strand
joy dancing with the band

I missed diving again tonight
been with all the sweetness in the world, so that’s alright
feeling seeping back in
feels like
life

meet me in the middle of the air
on the brooklyn bridge way up there
reclaim the streets, reclaim the sand
to the thump of a beautiful anarchist marching band
