The Herd

LG

A moment passes as life flows through glasses
And I hear laughter from the long grasses
Babes in baskets and drinking from casks
Now cigarette throats crackle and rasp

Asking questions about my family and folken
A real conversation with no jingles or tokens
The circle is broken it's split wide open
Now a spliff is lit and the perimeter is floating

Lips that are split become angry and spit
Yo backflipping pollies create a shit pit
Now swags dragged away forms filled in with ink
With bolt cutters drawn they're snapping the link

The most social of cultures judged anti-social
For living with families out in the open
Whereas we live in boxes preoccupied foxes
Yet nobody stops when an old lady crosses

Hey
The game's begun
The dice rolled
Now move along
I said hey
The game's begun
The dice is rolled
Now who has won

As i look into the eyes of these old fellas
As they look up into mine these storytellers
For the richness of culture I get jealous
As we hold up the cup and we drink from the chalice

Legs spread cross-legged again in the park
Hard fed stories inspirational spark
Dragonflies (?) signaling dark
Over my shoulder yes a night patrol car

Mob's moving song's soothing path choosing
Perimeter perusing has become a way of prooving
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
Displacement adjacent to the concrete jungle
But once whispered currawong to warraguls

I can't help but be a little bit ropeable

Hey
The game's begun
The dice rolled
Now move along
I said hey
The game's begun
The dice is rolled
Now who has won

I take flight with my bike and go cruise through the night
When confronted by shadows in an absence of light
My palms are getting sweaty I'm already forgetting
The netting of the bedding when the sun before setting

The shadows unravel telling stories of travel
And long (joyless?) walks across car-parks of gravel
Oval smiles pasted dials worthwhile tales for conversational styles
While all the while our canines hear/hit fences
An imaginary defense against walking a while

I dabble then I dibble when I'm stuck in the middle
Could you buy a vowel to help me solve this riddle
Piddles and skiddles and size mc jiggles (?)
Selectively alert now plays the fiddle

Hey
The game's begun
The dice rolled
Now move along
I said hey
The game's begun
The dice is rolled
Now who has won x 2
