Versuri Digging For Some Words
Chorus
Wanderers and nomads have gone to see their
chieftains
Will this be the end of the rain and the birds?
Who can send an emissary to speak to the seasons?
For the ravens and the crows already soak up the
skies...
I'm digging for some words beneath the stones in
Zimbabwe
I'm searching for a drum song in the jungles of
Zaire
I'm groping for the blood-moon in the mountains
of Malawi
Looking for the Lion of Ethiopia...
The setting dusk is darkened by the bark of the
baboon
The frogs and the owls no longer call to the moon
The warlords have gathered, blue smoke hiss from
teeth of chrome
And the baobab lies trembling in the boiling
blood-loam
The fireplace is broken and the grinding stone
too
Its million pieces flung across the plains of
Africa
Each dusty fragment a seed from which grows
The memory of a debt that only you and I will
know
Chorus
Seven seasoned soldiers have been summoned from
Saigon
A craven walkie talkie puts their bloodshot armor
on
Some drink beer milk, some drink kinky-kola
Sheep dogs live in Outeniqua
Gun dogs in Angola
Flames lick the corners of each hungry horseman's
smile
They have locusts in their scabbards and deserts
in their eyes
Passing through the air they leave a sea of fetid
rumors
As they ride across the skyline on a secret trail
of lies
Chorus
I found some words beneath a stone in Zimbabwe
I heard a distant drum song in the jungles of
Zaire
The blood-moon spoke of war in the mountains of
Malawi
But I never found the Lion of Ethiopia
