The Appeal of the Master Dredger

from MUTATIS MUTANDIS by Construction & Destruction

/

lyrics

This house must know that the iron mouth
of the dredging machine
may soon fall silent,
and that the riverbed will rise up again;
it won’t be satiated.

This house must know of the feeling
of lungs of iron,
and of the decay
of a multitude
of songs sung by sirens.

This house must know
of the loss
of the vital spark.
