Paul Shapera - New Albion 2 lyrics

(Narrator takes us around New Albion a generation later.) (Narrator) And so a generation's pa**ed Annabel married at last And she had a son she named Edgar but alas She died when he was 10 his heart was broken but since then He's grown and found his darling Fay with whom he wants to wed The red haired dwarf he had a son when the son turned 31 He stabbed his father so new mob boss he'd become As his father slowly died he told his son with tear stained eyes he was the proudest that he'd ever been in his entire life A cat burglar's around who is the toast of the whole town His is the most daring heists ever to abound In reality in fact it's two 18 year old girls and Their pet albatross Simon and a brilliant mouse named Sam In the Botanist's Lodge they've bred a plant who can think thoughts It communicates by opening its petals on and off But alas one day it went into a deep meditative trance Searching for enlightenment and has not made a move since then
