Much as a soldier enlisted in the American Earthman's army is called a "G.I.," an enlisted spaceman in Her Majesty's Space Navy is called "Dumaflagee." According to Her Majesty's Bureau of Linguistics, the word has been used for centuries to mean "what's his face?" Her Majesty's Board of Distinguished Experts on Musicology have established that "Dumaflagee's Lament" is a traditional spaceman's tune, sung by spaceman for the last three centuries. I present this rendition for the study of sympathetic Earthmen who yearn to traverse the vast expanse of the Universe.

Composed and performed by Admiral Krank. Drums by Mo Sheen.

Dumaflagee's Lament

A little folksy ramble about mortality, electricity and such things. 

When I wrote this I was thinking of when I was standing in my old hallway a few years ago. I was watching the lights from an overhead thunderstorm through the retro glass front door. It was the kind of storm where you could feel the strange sensations around your body from the electric charge in the atmosphere. It was such a charge that it somehow managed to ring the front door bell moments before a deluge. To me it was both poetic and a little bit freaky.

Persian sunlight
Wrapped in rugs that trapped it
In your memory so bright

Oxpecker scars
Feasted on your shoulders
As you fast

You have hovered like a kestrel
Watched the winter turn to petrichor
You have followed thunderstorms
Through minds-eye-skies and charge
The bell to your front door

You still resist
A quench for you temptation
And the dead will desist

So much to leave
Before you reach your senses
And can breathe

You have hovered like a kestrel
Watched the winter turn to petrichor
You have followed thunderstorms
Through minds-eye-skies and charge
The bell to your front door

Petrichor

The path of least resistance
The certainty of doubt
Reflections in a mirrored cage
The withs who are without
The burden of conformity
The illusion of choice
The silence of defiance to the inner voice

Waking up, coming home
Waking up, coming home

The safety in compliance
Shielding from the light
The appliance of the science
The truth that’s never right
So many years to drift the drift
The winding lane of fate
Released for good behaviour
It’s nevermore too late

Waking up, coming home
Waking up, coming home
(Following the path of least resistance)

The actor leaves the stage

Reflections

Wenn wir jetzt versagen, dann nicht aus Mangel an Gelegenheit, sondern weil wir es versäumen, die Gelegenheit beim Schopf zu packen.
Der Brunnen wurde gereinigt.

Clair De Lune - (Neoclassic Version)

Music and voice : Deepman
Words and voice : Luciole Langevine

Paix sur la terre 
Paix sur les hommes 

Paix sur la terre 
Paix sur la terre
Paix sur la terre

Paix sur les hommes
Que ces mots vides et creux enfin sonnent et résonnent 
Relayés, déployés 
Et frissonnent plus fort que ne peut briller l'or

Ô messagers de l'air aux gorges mirifiques
Sur tous les continents
Sonnez l'alarme douce 

Sonnez l'alarme douce
Et ouvrez tous les yeux
Et ouvrez tous les cœurs
Et ouvrez tous les yeux
Et ouvrez tous les cœurs

Sonnez l'alarme douce et ouvrez tous les yeux
Et ouvrez tout le chœur

Donnez chair 
Donnez corps à cette aspiration
Que chaque être porte en lui
Et même s'il l'ignore
Du début de sa vie jusqu'à l'heure de sa mort

Sonnez sonnez sonnez sonnez l'alarme douce...

translation:
Peace on earth
Peace over men

Peace on earth
Peace on earth
Peace on earth

Peace over men
May these empty and hollow words finally ring and ring
Relayed, deployed
And shudder louder than gold can shine

O messengers of the air with wonderful gorges
On all continents
Ring the soft alarm

Ring the soft alarm
And open all your eyes
And open all hearts
And open all your eyes
And open all hearts

Ring the sweet alarm and open all eyes
And open the whole choir

Give flesh
Give substance to this aspiration
That each being carries within him
And even if he ignores it
From the beginning of his life until the hour of his death

Ring ring ring ring the soft alarm ...
