The Fugs - Swinburne Stomp lyrics

The swinburne stomp 1 2 3 4 Ain't no body swine like the swinburne stomp... (frog did it) The swinburne stomp (yay) Before the beginnning of the earth There came to the making of man An' time was a gift of tears Grief was a gla** that ran Pleasure was pain for livin' Summer was flowers that fell Madness fallen from heaven And madness risen from hell (yeah) Strength without hands to smythe Love that endures forever Night the shadow of life And life the shadow of d**h And the hide gets tuck in hand Fire in the falling of tears And the measure of sliding sand From under the feet of the young And drift of the sea (ha) And dust of the lay bearing earth And bodies of things to be In the houses of d**h and of birth And rot was weeping in laughter And fashion was floating in love With life before the and after And d**h beneath and a dove (ugh!) Oh a day, and a night, and a 'morrow But he strength might endure for a span With prevail and heavy sorrow The holy spirit of man (aaahhh) The winds of the north and the south They gathered as one to strike (aaahhh) They breathed upon his mouth They filled his body with life Eye sight and speech they wrought For the veils of the soul they're in A time for labor and thought A time to serve and to sin They gave him light and his ways And love and space for delight And beauty and length of days And night and sleep in the night His speech is a burning fire With his lips he trevelop In his heart is a blind desire In his eyes for knowledge of d**h He weaves and is mold in derision He souls and he shall not reep His life is a watch or a vision Between a sleep and a sleep
