Mimicking Birds - Owl Hoots lyrics

For when the owl hoots at you, it's foot gets cut loose and you again hit 'snooze' And lose one more tooth and the entire roof's removed And this all ill-behooves you to come back with an equal evil on them to ensue Yea when the ice moves it cuts deep grooves You retire your snow shoes and drink your igloo And come to confused asleep in the caboose As your will refuses to interpret the train whistle as an owl hoot When the owl hoots How do you interpret the train whistle as the winter moves and wraps its icy noose around you Many eons beyond being long gone Many eons beyond being long gone Eons beyond being long gone Eons beyond being long gone So when the sky moves past you You turn a recluse and away from the city seclude And sleep through thirteen moons, and the owl will fly home soon As this all really proves to you that the sound of the train whistle drones like the owl's hoots When the owl hoots How do you interpret the train whistle as a winter moose foraging further towards human refuges And how do you envision the future being as the sea slowly eats land and spits everything back as sand Many eons beyond being long gone Many eons beyond being long gone Eons beyond being long gone Eons beyond being long gone
