Sugarcane

from Nightingale by Joe Bailey

/

lyrics

Come to me, I'll assist you,
When others have dismissed you.
Your love won't ever resist you,
I will see you through.
I am here to help you,
Make a pocket breakthrough.
They won't recognise you,
This will be your debut.

This sugarcane tastes so delectable,
Sweet on the tongue but inedible.
Up to your waist in regrettable lies.

My Father hijacked my sleep one night,
Seized my dreams with a tempting plight.
So eager and so erudite,
He beamed in silvery light.
"Digest my guidance and follow it,
Cup the lips and then swallow it.
Help them when they are desperate,
Cursed son, hold on tight."

I'll heal the land, but my poison is in the wind,
When I raise my hands, I don't want to cause suffering.
The many shall live, but the few have to die betimes,
And then I will give, remedial cover up.

This sugarcane tastes so delectable,
Sweet on the tongue but inedible.
Up to your waist in regrettable lies.
