15. Centaur’s Question (The Centaur)
Met a loner from Chicago, a black bride in Tel Aviv,
Met a centaur in the desert, and a wise man near Recife,
But not a single one believed in this derailed Halloween,
You don’t meet your loves at the Styx, my dear, no hear, no see.
You can’t meet the dead at the Styx, my dear, no hear, no see!
Heard a sermon of Father McKenzie and a choir in Berlin,
Met Eleanor Rigby at the graveyard and a saint singing his hymn.
They call me a scoffer, who pencils all this down,
Looking for an answer, to report to the crown.
Surprisingly too many hoped, when going down on their knees,
That they can meet their loves at the Styx, but it’s no hear, no see.
You can’t meet the dead at the Styx, my dear, no hear, no see.
So what is the benefit of all this?
The dead don’t return, no hug nor kiss!
They never come back, no whisper, no bliss.
So what is the benefit of this? Tell me
What is the logic of this?
The dead don’t return, no doubt about this,
They never come back, get used to what you miss.
So what is the benefit of this? Tell me
What is the benefit of this?
So, please, walk back, live your life, embrace your wife,
Walk home, have your soup, find your peace, back to life!
And don’t you lose track and don’t go out of your mind,
Completely, completely, completely out of mind
Completely, completely, completely out of mind
Completely, completely, completely out of mind!
