Happy Folk
Once upon a time at the footof a great mountain,
there was a town where the
people known as Happyfolk lived,
their very existence a mystery to
the rest of the world,
obscured as it was by great clouds.
Here they played out their peaceful
lives,
innocent of the litany of excess and
violence that was growing in the
world below.
To live in harmony with the spirit of
the mountain called Monkey was enough.
Then one day Strangefolk arrived
in the town.
They came in camouflage, hidden
behind dark glasses, but no one noticed them:
they only saw shadows.
You see, without the Truth of the Eyes,
the Happyfolk were blind...
Falling out of aeroplanes and hiding out
in holes
Waiting for the sunset to come, people
going home
Jump out from behind them and shoot
them in the head
Now everybody dancing the dance of the dead,
the dance of the dead,
the dance of the dead
In time, Strangefolk found their way into the
higher reaches of the mountain,
and it was there that they found the caves
of unimaginable Sincerity and Beauty.
By chance, they stumbled upon the Place
Where All Good Souls Come to Rest.
The Strangefolk, they coveted the jewels in
these caves above all things,
and soon they began to mine the mountain,
its rich seam fueling the chaos of their own
world.
Meanwhile, down in the town, the Happyfolk
slept restlessly,
their dreams invaded by shadowy figures
digging away at their souls.
Every day, people would wake and stare at
the mountain.
Why was it bringing darkness into their lives?
And as the Strangefolk mined deeper and
deeper into the mountain,
holes began to appear, bringing with them
a cold and bitter wind that chilled the very
soul of the monkey.
For the first time, the Happyfolk felt fearful
for they knew that soon the Monkey would
soon stir from its deep sleep.
And then came a sound. Distant first, it grew
into castrophany so immense it could be
heard far away in space.
There were no screams. There was no time.
The mountain called Monkey had spoken.
There was only fire.
And then, nothing....
O little town in U.S.A, your time has
come to see
There's nothing you believe you want
But where were you when it all came
down on me?
Did you call me now....
