Read Write Hand
With a notebook for a palm and pens for fingers this stationary set is an ideal companion. | |
Adapted from Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - Red Right Hand
On a gathering storm comes
a tall handsome man
in a dusty black coat with
a Read Write Hand
They're whispering his name
through this disappearing land
but hidden in his coat
is a Read Write Hand
A
shadow is cast wherever he stands
stacks of clean paper in his
Read Write Hand
You're one microscopic cog
in his catastrophic plan
designed and directed by
his Read Write Hand

One is a visionary singer and musician, the other is a
pitifully misguided actor with poor impulse control. |

+ for showing me this cool song. |

Wicked cool song. My favorite high school teacher played it
on a 12-string and had a spooky, haunting baritone. When I
asked about the origin he loaned me a stack of vinyl. Only
one of them was NC&BDs, but I discovered a whole new
sub-genre of music that weekend. |
