 The song's  a thing
 And this  one's thin
 From traveling  light
 The stars  at night
 Have seen  old time  to new  erosion
 Old  time gone  with old  religion
 Prickled  interest  seizing  pride
 The night  the music  upped  and died,  died.
 Been listening  all the night-long
 Been listening  all the day.
 Will I  listen for the one you know
 Will I listen,  will i pray?
 It's a-coming  all the night long
 It's a-coming  in the day
 It's blowing  through my stone  ears, whistling  its way.
 Left the song behind old chums
 The faintest trace of what's to come
 What's behind and what is near
 Banished by a suckling ear.
 Coffee lustre
 Lend me mine
 Nothing came with fear and wine, wine.
 Been listening all the night long
 Been listening all the day
 Will I listen for the one you know
 Will I listen, will I pray?
 It's a coming all the night-long
 Its a-coming in the day
 Its blowing through my stone ears, whistling it's way.
 The music's gone
 The music's dead
 The music went and in its stead
 A single song, a chorus strong
 A symphony, songs right or wrong
 The band's rehearsing, the radios off
 The silence is everything, hold that cough.
 Been listening all the night-long
 Been listening all the day
 Will I listen to the one you know
 Will I listen, will I pray?
 It's a-coming all the night-long
 It's a-coming in the day
 It's blowing through my stone ears, whistling it's way.

Left the song behind old chums
The faintest trace of what's to come
What's behind and what is near
Banished by a suckling ear.
Coffee lustre
Lend me mine
Nothing came with fear and wine, wine.
Been listening all the night long
Been listening all the day
Will I listen for the one you know
Will I listen, will I pray?
It's a coming all the night-long
Its a-coming in the day
Its blowing through my stone ears, whistling it's way.
The music's gone
The music's dead
The music went and in its stead
A single song, a chorus strong
A symphony, songs right or wrong
The band's rehearsing, the radios off
The silence is everything, hold that cough.
Been listening all the night-long
Been listening all the day
Will I listen to the one you know
Will I listen, will I pray?
It's a-coming all the night-long
It's a-coming in the day
It's blowing through my stone ears, whistling it's way.
