Notes on DENNIS "The Life of a Camel, WWIII" © Feller Quentin Mastered by Feller Quentin. Engineered by Kevin Ink. Recorded at The Treehouse, San Francisco, Fall 2003 All Instruments, Lyrics & Vocals by Feller Quentin Courtesy of Feller Quentin www.fellerquentin.com Lyrics So you think the desert is deep. Well you haven't been to the end. Because at the end, that's the end of the earth then there's a long way down. So you had a hard day. You got bit by a snake and chased by a tank. You say that you will be shot on sight. They dug a hole in the ground. Do you think your cave is cold? Well you haven't been in a cage. In the zoo there is nothing to do except sleep and age. Maybe you thought that the life of a camel was much better than that. Well when you finally learn how to write You can start a new life. But you can't go back to your homeland. That is the place that your bones got broken. They were all enraged. You are all alone. You are paralyzed by the fever now. We cannot behold your beauty. Your shoes have scarred the earth Where your mother dropped your birth, All tongues lapping blood from the sand. Crooked crow of the east may you now be in peace. BACK |
