True Enough Songtext
von Tom Hogan

True enough, Herman only had tea in his veins
In all kith and kin there are no famous authors
No famous chroniclers
Just hoarded up mementoes

True enough, believe me I ain′t crazy but
I've a sort of sea feeling here
Here at home in Arrowhead
Berkshire, Massachusetts
Watching the cow eat and chew
She does it with such sanctity

And thus and thus
And thus and thus
Now all is ashes, now is all done


Hold up, have you ever even read it?
(Moby Dick!)
I don′t think I need to
I can still hold it up as a warning
Hold it up when it's dawning
That one single thought will drive you mad
If you don't accept it or empathise

To the devil with you and your daguerreotype
To the devil with you and your daguerreotype
To the devil with you and your daguerreotype
It is forever over now
′Til we all fall fathoms

And thus and thus
And thus and thus
Now all is ashes, now is all done
And thus and thus
And thus and thus
Now all is ashes, now is all done
And thus and thus
And thus and thus
Now all is ashes, now is all done
And thus and thus
And thus and thus
Now all is ashes, now is all done


To the devil with you and your daguerreotype
To the devil with you and your camera
To the devil with you and your nostalgia
For it is forever over now
′Til we all fall fathoms
