Andy Partridge - Rook lyrics

Rook, Rook Read from your book Who murders who and where is the treasure hid? Crow, Crow Spill all you know Is that my name on the bell? Rook, Rook Gaze in the brook If there's a secret can I be part of it? Crow, Crow Before I'll let go, say is that my name on the bell? Soar up high, see the semaphore from the washing lines Break the code of the whispering chimneys and traffic signs Where's the message that's written under the base of clouds? Plans eternal, I know you know, so don't blurt out loud Rook, Rook By hook or by crook I'll make you tell me what this whole thing's about! Crow, Crow Why can't you show If that's my name on the bell? On the wings of night, I fly too, above field and stream My head bursting with knowledge 'till I wake from the dream If I die and I find that I had a soul inside Promise me that you'll take it up on its final ride Rook, Rook Gaze in the brook If there's a secret can I be part of it? Crow, Crow Before I'll let go, say is that my name on the bell? Is that my name on the bell?
