lyrics

The most beautiful girl in the universe
Beautiful like a hearse
She left me cursed
My course reversed, what's happened to the planet Earth, whoa

The blue-green planet Earth

I stood enthralled, maybe overawed
At the way she filled the silence
The four winds called, she left her thrall
And possessions all
Entombed in absence

On an arid, desert walkabout
Aspirations all, now have my doubt
I can see my guarded optimism
Through a prism
And, barring cataclysm

I - - - - -
I'm but a stone

(Sum Sum Summertime
Summer time, I stand alone
Just like a stone in the sun

Sum Sum Summertime
Summer time, everyone's gone
I'm but a stone in the sun)

(Solo)

Were the seas were to rise, if the mountains shook
I'd face them, rather than her coldest
look
Even so, I'm cast aside
On a Daliesque landscape, vast, & wide


On an arid, desert walkabout
Aspirations all, now have my doubt
I can see my guarded optimism
Through a prism
And, barring cataclysm

I - - - - - -
I'm but a stone

Sum Sum Summertime
Summer time, I stand alone
Just like a stone in the sun

(solo)

Sum Sum Summertime
Summer time, I stand alone
I'm but a stone in the sun

I - - - - - -
I'm but a stone in the sun

Sum Sum Summertime
Summer time, everyone's gone
I'm but a stone in the sun

The Beatitudes Brooklyn, New York

Formed by Dave Thomas in 2013, with itinerant workers from the arid Eucalyptus Valley of Norway. Dave soon chained them in his studio basement and made them record rock songs against their will. Soon they became docile and escaped, but this recording remains as a legacy of their indentured servitude, and malice. ... more
