some lyrics for kay walkowiak's work - refer back to the wigs @ sweet anticipation



Class Acts

Class acts in sleek spaces
Follow your inner savage detectives, baby
Stay truthful to your heart of darkness
For the thrill of it all

Class acts in undiscovered rooms
They want to enjoy where they are, girl
Don’t you take it too serious
I never meant to turn you on

Class acts in liminal zones
There lies the curator’s egg, darlin
Try to remember the future
And make it worth while you can

Class acts and copycats
We are in a Dada state of grâce, babe
Shall we seek where all the good tunes have gone?
Maybe it is them who set us free.





Paused

Now the show is over
And I am tired
Then I see you coming
Meaning  complete with motion
You whisper in my ear
Long forgotten childhood fantasies
Where the world is once clear, once obscure yet expandable
What are we doing under this table
And you hush me

(Refrain)
Ooooo
Here is something in your palm
Ooooo
There it is gone where did you hide it ?
Daaaaa
You wanna keep me there
Daaaaa
Here it appears, must be magic

I open my eyes in a different place
In the cherished darkness of an unknown language
He found us hiding
Then we start running
Disappearing into the flood of people in the market
You suddenly shouted « stop » to that black taxi
I don’t know where we are going
And you hush me

(Refrain)
Ooooo
Here is something in your palm
Ooooo
There it is gone where did you hide it ?
Daaaaa
You wanna keep me there
Daaaaa
Here it appears, must be magic







May the Circle Remain Unbroken

Change your heart
Look around you
Who do you wanna be now ?
Where do you wanna go ?
Until when the spirits of dead philosophers will guide you ?
It’s the easiest to accept the authority of tradition
Challenge yourself
Take the challenge

Dig down baby dig down dig down
To the roots
To see of our lived experience of this world

Hold it, yeah, keep it do not let it fall
There it is, how it feels, just above my head
Can someone please teach me how to remember my dreams?
Let us imagine in the dark and of its spaces
Tickle me humour me make me dream
It’s the easiest to accept the authority of tradition
Challenge yourself
Take the challenge

Dig down baby dig down
To the roots of experience
To feel how deep is the sphere of imagination
