Laurie Anderson.08.Bodies In Motion.mp3

We embody the spirit of motion.
We're bodies in motion. We're bodies in motion.

We dig down in the ocean. Swing up to the stars.
We own the moon and the earth. We're masters of Mars.
We're bodies in motion. We embody the spirit of motion.

Our ancestors cowered in caves
Afraid of the dark and the thunder.
Wrapped tip in black magic and rage
They were slaves to their hunger.
Now we fly across mountains in planes
We know aII about time and big numbers.
We're bodies in motion.
We embody the spirit of motion.

I love you with aII my heart. You have my devotion.
I loved you from the start. We're bodies in motion.
We embody the spirit of motion.

Ooo the weight of the world. Eternal spin.
Puts a dent in my shoulder.
A burn in my spin. A burn in my spin.

Some say the future is crowds fighting for water and space.
Chaotic and dark and loud, everything used up and taken.

But I say the future's within the still point of the mind
Where we escape the bounds of earth
And break the bonds of time.

If somebody asked me to design a religion
I would make it aIl about snow.
No good or evil and no suffering.
Just perfect crystals spinning
In ecstasy ecstasy ecstasy ecstasy.

Ooo the weight of the world. Etemal spin.
Puts a dent in my shoulder.
A burn in my spin. A bum in my spin.

Ooo the weight of the world. Etemal spin.
Puts a dent in my shoulder.
A burn in my spin. A bum in my spin.

We dig down in the ocean. Swing up to the stars.
We own the moon and the earth. We're masters of Mars.
We're bodies in motion. We embody the spirit of motion.
We're bodies in motion. We embody the spirit of motion.
 
Laurie Anderson.01.The Dream Before (For Walter Benjamin).mp3

Hansel and Gretel are alive and well
And they're living in Berlin
She is a cocktail waitress
He had a part in a Fassbinder film
And they sit around at night now
Drinking schnapps and gin
And she says: Hansel, you're really bringing me down
And he says: Gretel, yu can really be a bitch
He says: I've wated my life on our stupid legend
When my one and only love
Was the wicked witch.

She said: What is history?
And he said: History is an angel
Being blown backwards into the future
He said: History is a pile of debris
And the angel wants to go back and fix things
To repair the things that have been broken
But there is a storm blowing from Paradise
And the storm keeps blowing the angel
Backwards into the future
And this storm, this storm
Is called
Progress
