Marram – Falling From the Sun Lyrics (Feat. Jarvis Cocker & Margaret Bennett)
Well I built a butterfly and I painted it blue, green and gold
Charted a course for the sky and forgot everything I had been told
But I fell in love with the colour and forgot how to be so bold
So I locked it in the attic so I wouldn’t have to see it get old
So I renounced the aesthetic, and I found myself ascetic pride
I went back to the drawing board, sketching now a household fly
But the sights just weren’t set high, and I started to dive too soon
Ended buzzing round the streetlights, sun forsaken for a more convenient moon
Well we used to flock together but now not just any feather would do
So I swore to find a bird to help fly any weather with you
One night deep out in the blue I heard a witch owl perched on top of the moon
I listened late and long and I prayed every story was true
So we took to the skies, man I’ve never been so high, OH MY GOD
I screamed out, ‘God where are you’, but we heard only blue, and I stopped
When you’re wide-eyed, terrified, the worst thing is to find that its fun
So now I’m falling from the sun, got a feeling our flight has just begun
Just begun
Just begun
(children)
COME ON JARVIS!
So if you’ll study the lock, then I’ll mark out a field
I’ll learn how to write, if you’ll find a seed
And if you’ll sharpen the knife, then I’ll study the sea,
I’ll tend to the soil, if you’ll make a key
And if I learn how to fly by the stars, will you learn how to read
If you double check the ropes, then I’ll build a tree
And if I can cut a path through the rocks, will you paint it green
If you keep wood on the fire, then I’ll cut us free
(children)
SPOLKESTRA, HOLD YOUR COURSE!
ITS BLUE, BLUE, BLUE, BUT YOUR BEARINGS ARE TRUE!
(Marram + Gillie + Mum + Sami)
CHILDREN! HOLD YOUR COURSE!
ITS BLUE, BLUE, BLUE, BUT WE BELIEVE IN YOU!
