Lyrics
New World
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I heard the great Rimbaud
Painted Venus de Milo
In a plaza at Pompeii
Then walked away
He took a plane to the far east
Wrote scripture at sea
Was never again heard
But I heard he’s in the New World
So how about it let us
Get outta here before they get us
Forget about silver and gold
Set the sails for the New World
The great Michelangelo
Invented the telescope
He saw the great migration
Of stars in heaven
He wrote it all in a letter
Which he sealed with his treasure
And I’m told
He buried it in the New World
So how about it let us
Get outta here before they get us
Forget about silver and gold
Set the sails for the New World
