Throwaway Song (12" Mix)

This is a throwaway song.
Don't matter what I say.
Just gonna throw it away,
when I upload later today
up to it's final resting place,
in a cloud that doesn't make it rain.
Don't get me wrong,
this ain't my first throwaway song.
This is a throwaway song.
You'll hit skip before it plays,
or just stow it away
until these words are passed passé.
"One man's trash", etc,
insert any suitable cliché...
"It is what it is", "at the end of the day",
just throw it away.
This is a throwaway song.
Don't matter what I play.
Just gonna throw it away.
Buried 'neath mp3's and wav's
in a gleaming hi-def trashcan
with digital display.
But don't get me wrong,
this ain't my last throwaway song.

The Trooper

You'll take my life, but I'll take yours too.
You'll fire your musket, but I'll run you through.
While you're waiting for the next attack.
You’d better stand, there's no turning back.
The bugle sounds, the charge begins.
But on this battlefield, no one wins.
An acrid smell of smoke and horse's breath.
As I plunge into certain death.
My horse sweats with fear, we break to run.
Towards the roar of their smoking guns.
And as we race towards the human wall.
I hear the screams as my comrades fall.
We hurdle bodies scattered on the ground.
Then they fire another round.
We get so near, yet so far away.
And we won't live to fight another day.
We get so close, near enough to fight.
When that bastard gets me in his sights.
He pulls the trigger and I feel the blow.
A burst of rounds takes my horse below.
And now I lay, staring at the sky.
My body’s numb and my throat is dry
I am forgotten and alone.
Without a tear, I draw my parting groan.

China Cat Sunflower

Look for a while at the China Cat Sunflower
Proud walking jingle in the midnight sun
Copper-dome bodhi drip, a silver kimono
Like a crazy quilt star gown, through a dream night wind
Crazy Cat peeking through a lace bandanna
Like a One-Eyed Cheshire, like a Diamond-Eye Jack
A leaf of all colors plays a golden-string fiddle
To a double-E waterfall, over my back
China Cat, China Cat
China Cat, China Cat…
Comic book colors on a violin river
Cryin' Leonardo words, from out a silk trombone
I rang a silent bell, beneath a shower of pearls
In the Eagle-Winged Palace of the Queen Chinee
