| What do the men say | |
| To the women when they lay down at night. | |
| All naked of arms from the old imagined fight? | |
| And how do the women hear? | |
| In kind and in likeness of light - | |
| "In kindness you needn't and neither do I, | |
| we are both of us capable of flight", | |
| And as if to give proof | |
| She jumped through the hole in the roof. | |
| What did the condemned say | |
| To the blessed when they met on the path? | |
| "O you take the low road and I'll take the high for a laugh, | |
| (but if I'm laughing now it's because I've a gentle heart)", | |
| And because it was true | |
| He slipped through the hole in the roof. | |
| La la la la, | |
| La la la la la la... | |
| From above your head a thing can be read that you're thinking... | |
| What the secretaries sing and the CEO's bark in the bars - | |
| What do the dead say | |
| To the ones who still think they're alive? | |
| "With your heads all on backwards | |
| You can't see in front for what near behind you lies" | |
| "Well show us some help then, | |
| Above your head let it flicker the light, | |
| These ones that I'm with | |
| Have not learned to forgive your necessary alibis - | |
| When they made you love money, | |
| And the poor prophet's stock, | |
| When they poisoned the watersheds | |
| And fashioned our arrowheads | |
| From the deep forbidden rock. | |
| O but did you see what people do? | |
| And when you saw it you did it too, | |
| Now all your children are twice the size of you, | |
| and they come in at night through | |
| The hole in your roof | |
| The hole in your roof | |
| The hole in your roof | |
| The hole in your roof |
