Book II
BkII:XVII We’ll Go Together

Why do you stifle me with your complaining?
It’s neither the gods’ idea nor mine to die
before you, Maecenas, you’re the great
glory, and pillar of my existence.
Ah, if some premature blow snatches away
half of my spirit, why should the rest remain,
no longer as loved, nor surviving
entire? That day shall lead us to ruin
together. I’m not making some treacherous
promise: whenever you lead the way, let’s go,
let’s go, prepared as friends to set out,
you and I, to try the final journey.
No Chimaera’s fiery breath will ever tear
me from you, or if he should rise against me
hundred handed Gyas: that’s the will
of all-powerful Justice and the Fates.
Whether Libra or fearful Scorpio shone
more powerfully on me at my natal hour,
or Capricorn, which is the ruler
of the waters that flow round Italy,
our stars were mutually aspected in their
marvellous way. Jupiter’s protection shone,
brighter for you than baleful Saturn,
and rescued you, and held back the rapid
wings of Fate, that day when the people crowding
the theatre, three times broke into wild applause:
I’d have received the trunk of a tree
on my head, if Faunus, the guardian
of Mercurial poets, hadn’t warded off
the blow with his hand. So remember to make
due offering: you build a votive shrine:
I’ll come and sacrifice a humble lamb.

BkII:XVII We’ll Go Together

At the birthday party
Some friendly shades laughing
At the purple fake fog
The thrill's lit up by lasers

Then I catch a glimpse
In the half-light
I know that I shouldn't stay

At the birthday party
Your shadow play has started
And it's just so hard, dear
To fake I don't like it

When I follow you
To the upstairs room
I know that I shouldn't chase
White rabbits

Wild electric glow
Don't ever stop
Wild electric glow
Don't let me go
Don't go!

At the birthday party
Some aliens try a few dance steps
So we all start dancing
Some shout this is our last chance

Then I follow you
To the upstairs room
I know that I shouldn't chase
White rabbits

Wild electric glow
Wild electric glow
Don't let me go
Don't go!

Wild electric glow
Don't let me go
Wild electric glow

The Birthday Party

Glue is a lively and energetic song that's sure to get your toes tapping, but beyond the catchy beat and upbeat tempo lies a deep exploration of vulnerability, connection, and the power of interpretation.

Overall, the lyrics of Glue are poignant and evocative, capturing the feeling of finding safety and comfort in someone else's care.

LYRICS

My philosophy
Always try things twice
Walk with me, you'll see
Noodles are so nice

My philosophy
Always try things twice
Walk with me, you'll see
Noodles, for life


I want noodles for life
They aint got no order
No straight lines running out
Just chaos no borders
Go where you want son
You'll stay with your brothers
And then at the end
you return to your mothers
Ill slip through his life
Like a fish seeks his water
Her crazy school showing
The way of the order
I'll sip and enjoy from the fruits of my Labour
The world rushes past,
we soon learn to savour
All the things that we see some things we don't
Some folks make what they got: some look back to ghosts
In the vacuum of time we can learn to reframe the grants we were granted now we must learn to share
I was young, so were you, we have all played the fool
I've been given the time and it comes out in rhyme
turning lists into ticks is my new therapy
I do things my own way, bowl of noodles and me.

My philosophy
Always try things twice
Walk with me, you'll see
Noodles are so nice

My philosophy
Always try things twice
Walk with me, you'll see
Noodles, for life

Noodles For Life

LYRICS:

no way
i came here to forget those things
i can't stay
but let me be un-cynical
for one more second
one more lightyear
one imploding sun
wherever this may go
it has begun

far away
far away from earthly troubles
life again
pirouettes among the corals
does every heart
does every alien
get the urge run?
wherever this may go
it has begun

a face you remember
and all those you forget
and then there’s everyone
you’ve never even met
but the question of scale
is easily dropped
as the face across the table
grows larger

no way
got no room
for any major changes
but take this thought wherever you want
and rearrange the furniture
my kidneys and my lungs
wherever this may go
it has begun

no way
and then i find a way of saying
maybe
and then i find a way of saying
yes please
and then i find a way of saying
change me
change me
change me

No Way
