lyrics
Lady of the Wild Things (K Langley)
On the edge of the world, there is a place where one tree is standing,
Here lives the lady of the wild things, she protects the earth and now she is angry.
Her shout is as loud as a thousand trumpets; her breath is the fire of a hundred dragons
She is Kali, she is the dark one and she is moving she is coming.
She’s the lady of the wild things and you can’t stop her (x 3)
Let her in!
She chews up the buildings, she chews up the cars, she chews up the people, she chews up the bars
Of the cage that we have invented, she chews up the things that no-one really needs.
She’s the lady of the wild things and you can’t stop her (x 2).
(Break)
She’s the lady of the wild things and you can’t stop her (x 4).
She’s the lady of the wild things and she is coming in from the darkness.
Open up the door and let her come in – she is here! she is here!, she is here!
Open the door; see she is waiting, waiting to follow you in (x3).
On the edge of the world, there is a place where one tree is standing,
Here lives the lady of the wild things, she protects the earth and now she is angry.
Her shout is as loud as a thousand trumpets; her breath is the fire of a hundred dragons
She is Kali, she is the dark one and she is moving she is coming.
She’s the lady of the wild things and you can’t stop her (x 3)
Let her in!
She chews up the buildings, she chews up the cars, she chews up the people, she chews up the bars
Of the cage that we have invented, she chews up the things that no-one really needs.
She’s the lady of the wild things and you can’t stop her (x 2).
(Break)
She’s the lady of the wild things and you can’t stop her (x 4).
She’s the lady of the wild things and she is coming in from the darkness.
Open up the door and let her come in – she is here! she is here!, she is here!
Open the door; see she is waiting, waiting to follow you in (x3).

about
BABAL England, UK
One speaks and a thousand misunderstand
where millions are silent and a thunderous applause erupts
where chatter
overwhelms humility and gossip destroys worlds
the tongues wag, the ears flap and the mind creates a wall
everything has been said but no one has understood
talking with conviction and concluding that knowledge is easy and effects a multitude of expanding smokescreens around truth
