News From Babel – Banknote Lyrics

Artist: News From Babel
Song: Banknote

I nailed a banknote to a tree
But it did not nourish me
I placed a cheque upon the earth
I signed it, but

No crops came forth
I pressed a coin against my lips
I closed my eyes –
I felt no kiss

I came to the conclusion that
I’d laboured
Under an illusion
And that

The light loves the leaf
The soil needs the seed, and
Love must have a lover
All this I discovered

On
An empty stomach
