"Orpheus looked at his instrument
And he gave the wire a pluck
He heard a sound so beautiful
He gasped and said O my God
O Mamma O Mamma

He rushed inside to tell his wife
He went racing down the halls
Eurydice was still asleep in bed
Like a sack of cannonballs
O Mamma O Mamma

Look what I've made, cried Orpheus
And he plucked a gentle note
Eurydice's eyes popped from their sockets
And her tongue burst through her throat
O Mamma O Mamma

O God, what have I done, he said
As her blood pooled in the sheets
But in his heart he felt a bliss
With which nothing could compete
O Mamma O Mamma
"

Messiah Ward. Pela décima terceira vez esta noite. Ou então Spell. Ou Easy Money. Ou Abattoir Blues. Foram chegando aos poucos durante o fim de semana, que eu não aguentava esperar até amanhã (também não tinha rivotril aqui em casa...) Mas amanhã, prometo, também vou à FNAC comprar o álbum. Só não aguentava a espera...
