Prologue
We were skating down Alonim Ave.
it was the Independence Day
everybody came to watch the parade
wearing blue and white cheering hurray
Before us twirled the folk dance group
behind us marched the orchestra
we were the young skaters
looking in the crowd for proud Mama
That’s how things went down
That’s how things went down
In Tivon
we used to go out to the big city mall -
“The Heart of the Bay”
mini golf, movies, ice skating, arcade
I won the teddy bear
That’s how things went down
That’s how things went down
In Tivon
We never believed in Santa
but we did believe in good
the truth poured like pollution
ended our childhood
That’s how things went down
That’s how things went down
In Tivon
Zombie-jellyfish
Every day my mother sent me to school with pita with chocolate in a plastic bag.
At the end of the school year I had to clear out the shelf underneath my desk.
I found there 13 greenish-blue bags of rotten pita looking like zombie-jellyfish.
I carried them to the Abramovitz villa down the road, bubbles of fungus popping off the poor creatures.
I climbed the Abramovitz fence and snuck through the backyard to the baby blue swimming pool.
I let my zombie-jellyfish go
set them free into the chlorine waters
I let my zombie-jellyfish go
to swim forever
Vomiting Rainbows
The VANDAL GIRL GANG and their screwdriver kit
posts left bare, signs disappear
If you ever come to our bomb shelter
you might recognize the decor here
In the middle of the woods, stands facing the valley
a round chinese diner deserted but intact
if we’re not at school we’re probably there
we call it The STONED CAT
Party at the old slaughter house
Oh No! the cops are coming
a bottle of vodka and a bag of m&m’s
vomiting rainbows
The DUKIM is a small gang with matching rings
they go out on weird adventures while we’re asleep
like the time at the sculpture garden
when they shot a movie with the marble sheep
Party at the old slaughter house
Oh No! the cops are coming
a bottle of vodka and a bag of m&m’s
vomiting rainbows
ALFREDO is our biggest bomb shelter
the boys brought a mattress, a record player too
It’s perfect for the band’s rehearsals
there’s a party on the weekend and no curfew
Party at the old slaughter house
Oh No! the cops are coming
a bottle of vodka and a bag of m&m’s
vomiting rainbows
Mamma told me to study
but they kicked me out of school
Pappa told me I got no future
but I think he’s a fool!
Party at the old slaughter house
Oh No! the cops are coming
a bottle of vodka and a bag of m&m’s
vomiting rainbows
vomiting rainbows
vomiting rainbows
Intermission
They were raised in a green kingdom of cyclamens and oak
The queen of Emek Yzrael nurtured them with hope
But they rebelled. They broke rules, and all the things worth living for turned gray
and drifted away.
So they say the youth of today
Is lost.
Will the Emek Yzrael successors find their way to the bounty of this beautiful land?
Or will autumn linger forevermore?
Never
On the hills of Sheikh Abreik
Alex gazes to the East.
Ha-Nasi came with the sun,
But that promise too has ceased.
The horse’s tail was stolen,
No guard, no God, no judge
I’ll gaze up to the empty skies
Like me, they hold no grudge
Never have I ever found the treasure
Even though it’s green out It’s as if they plucked my feathers
I don’t care
I don’t care
I don’t care
On the hills of Sheikh Abreik
The moon light all in blue
Can you see if there’s still a purpose
Can you see if there is a clue
Sitting on the top of the monument
Swinging my legs, drunk
Names embedded in the stone
My echo chases my song
Never have I ever found the treasure
Even though it’s green out It’s as if they plucked my feathers
I don’t care
I don’t care
I don’t care
Winter
Winter won’t come
the cleansing rain is missing
I’ve been waiting for a breeze
to blow on me some believing
The sound of trees growing
gives my heart some proportions
but if the wind won’t blow
i’ll turn up the distortion
There’s a loophole in the fence
of the public swimming pool
it’s been deserted for sometime
dry leaves and weed rule
I climb in down the ladder
to the cracked baby blue
the pool echoes the crunch
of leaves under my shoe
I can’t seem to find two rocks
in this concrete world
I guess we used up all our sparks
When will the winter come?
When will the winter come?
Squeaky BMX
riding up and down the hills
dipping in the natural Mikve
the water gives me chills
The sound of wheat growing
gives my heart some proportions
but if the wind won’t blow
i’ll turn up the distortion
We used to walk barefoot
down the streets of Tivon
sit on the roof gaze at stars
thinking that we’re not alone
Somewhere an iceberg is melting
I hear something from the oak
it’s an owl preaching
“Don’t give up on your hope”
I can’t seem to find two rocks
in this concrete world
I guess we used up all our sparks
When will the winter come?
When will the winter come?
Cyclamens
I’m gonna be a juggler
I’ll mime and swallow knives
I’ll be shot out from a canon
circus is my life
I’m gonna be a communist
cuz someone ought to be
I’ll change the world with my comrades
for freedom, equality!
I’m gonna ride the tide
Race the sunrise
Touch the edge of the world!
My hometown’s in my blood
Will flow to my tomb
From beneath the stone
I will bloom
I will bloom
I will bloom
I’m gonna be a pilot
look at how my pecs shine
after winning waterpolo cup
the pilot wings are mine
I’m gonna be a millionaire
wear a suit and smoke cigars
my money will make money
I’ll be a big big shark
I’m gonna ride the tide
Race the sunrise
Touch the edge of the world!
My hometown is running in my blood
And will follow me to my tomb
From beneath the stone
I will bloom
I will bloom
I will bloom
It was quirky and unhealthy
It was fucked up and bizarre
It was privileged and so wealthy
My first kiss my first scar
I’m gonna ride the tide
Race the sunrise
Touch the edge of the world!
My hometown is running in my blood
And will follow me to my tomb
From beneath the stone
I will bloom
I will bloom
I will bloom
