Born on the Wind

Mira’s got a job tonight

Keeping someone up

Handing them their lemonade

In a sharkskin cup

Mira wants to leave the crowd

Sail to wear things crack

Where steam and ice go hand in hand

And nobody comes back

Born on the wind

Born on the wind

Mira was an accident

That couldn’t be reversed

‘Think of how you’d feel’ she said

‘If you could feel this cursed

I’m going where the streets are seas

And down beneath my keel

The ******* flows through the ventilation shafts

And that’s the way I feel’

Born on the wind

Born on the wind

‘We live in a pornocracy’ she said

‘Where people fan their flames

Desire is your only judge

And god has many names

One of them is Mr Spinks

And one of them is God’

Mira fishes from the rocks

For the DaVinci cod

Born on the wind

Born on the wind

Born on the wind
