I fixed the outside lamp
Broken by a falling tree
I sawed the branches off
Separated wood from leaves
A swimming pool to cool my body in
Neighbours watched ravenously
Monkeys came to raid the fruit trees
Which grow so willingly
Gymnogene was hanging
On my neighbour's palm tree
Floodplain between our houses
Ran with heavy rain
Carving out a valley
To keep ourselves away
From each other's necks
From each other's hate
From each other's necks
From each other's hate
The thunder shook the valley
The birds all screeched in fear
I felt my blood was boiling
I felt the end was near
Apocalyptic winds blew
Creatures drowned in mud
And all the while I felt it
The thunder in my blood
And all the while I felt it
The thunder in my blood

I think there is a wonderful sense of flow and balance throughout the album. Learning a bit about how the album was recorded, layered and arranged has made me appreciate it all the more. The tracks rise and fall just as the ocean in the interludes, a fantastic journey overall. Love it! not-that-wes-anderson
