Badlees - A Fever
(naydock, palladino)
With flu
I dream of you
In light as blue as neon when it’s blue
Past visions of rolling hills
In movie stills
A panoramic stew
Above the scientific
Element, content
We spy the view
(chorus)
A fever’s brought me close to you
In ways we can not be
A fever’s brought me close to you
In ways we can not be
Even in memory
Sublime
In double time
We climb to where convention swerves and leans
’couple-a-beers
In a tent by sears
By a giant plastic nativity scene
In color dogs endure
I’m sure
The light you’ve given me is green
(chorus)
I mouth petitions
Oh those soft renditions
Of the ones I’ve come to lean on
For you
Again, in blue
And straightening a photographic dawn
May I experience
The sense of
Where I dream you when I’m gone
(chorus 2x)
