lyrics

Non Industrial Catastrophe Blue (15-17/3/09)
I had a dream I went out back
Out through the gate to get the car
The car had gone there was an angel
Instead of white his robes were blue,
I looked at you and I asked “why?”
And you just said “It’s what you wanted”
Non Industrial Catastrophe Blue
Instead of steel his wings were wood,
And they were glazed we could see right through
See everything that he had in there
I went closer still and there was writing on the wall
I couldn’t read but then the words came into focus
It said “Non Industrial Catastrophe Blue”
Then I awoke and you were sleeping by my side the cat was
Lying in between us, she was purring
It was only six but I thought I should get up now
And get myself off to the beach and watch the sunrise
Non Industrial Catastrophe Blue
I had a song inside my head the day before it wasn’t great
But it was fine to get things started
Worked out the rhythm of the words that I required
Then told the story of the dream and how it ended
The angel spoke he told a tale of when he roamed across
The earth just touching people and they fell there
Instead of white his robes were blue
I looked at you and I asked “why?”
And you just said “It’s what you wanted”
Non Industrial Catastrophe Blue
