[00:09.56]from the point he gazed from the choice was made, but ’walk the cave or the shore?’
[00:14.14]the oily cave seemed to breathe on him through gravestone jaws
[00:18.22]his little hand grasped in anguish as he weighed up his coin
[00:22.62]somewhere a blue-eyed girl in the world is just waiting for a boy
[00:26.98]footprints trailed as if trod by slaves up to the grey cave floor
[00:31.35]but not one graze from anything ever escaping this fort
[00:35.76]so with coin on hand his joy came back when ordered to take the shore
[00:40.22]’why on earth’, as he wandered the warmth, ’am i obeying this coin?’
[00:44.52]turn your life on the flip of this coin
[00:48.92]turn upside a choice you’d normally avoid
[00:53.44]and promise me you’ll follow what it says
[00:57.80]whatever it says
[01:00.56]
[01:02.00]again, walk within the trusted beach or swim the swell of the sea?
[01:06.51]and again the scarier alternative looked like certain death to he
[01:11.23]he’d never learnt to skill of swimming - it never occurred to be very easy
[01:15.57]and again he winced as he flipped the coin and it twirled to his feet
[01:19.63]’how is this sane?’ he blamed the coin now aiming for the waves
[01:24.06]as he hesitated at the swirl of water as it raged and rained
[01:28.45]blue-eyed girls were waiting and he was drowning in the spray
[01:33.01]blue-eyed girls he should have been acquainted with but for shouting and flailing
[01:37.70]turn your life on the flip of this coin
[01:41.73]turn upside a choice you’d normally avoid
[01:46.21]and promise me you’ll follow what it says
[01:50.74]whatever it says
[01:53.65]
[01:54.87]he finally slugs it back to land feeling chewed-up and foolish
[01:59.93]empties his pockets on the sand spewing a pool each
[02:03.93]staggers back to his dad who’s too cool to be
[02:08.29]so he says ’why did you have me follow this stupid rule, please?’
[02:12.77]to be honest little fellow i’ll tell you
[02:15.32]i was just as afraid as you
[02:17.29]but you said you wanted to get with people and places ever new
[02:21.36]and i got a bit scared of the fate of my baby son’s future
[02:25.70]so i invented a reason to see if you could ever make do
[02:29.92]as soon as you appeared behind that rock looking angry at me
[02:34.47]i soon realised what a hell of a man you’ve ended up being
[02:38.70]i knew you’d worked out how to swim, which i hadn’t had in me
[02:43.56]and i stand as a companion of you, proudest a man has ever been
[02:48.26]turn your life on the flip of this coin
[02:52.36]turn upside a choice you’d normally avoid
[02:56.74]and promise me you’ll follow what it says
[03:00.95]whatever it says
