Quito Lyrics

When I receive the blessing I've got coming

I'm going to raise an ice-cold glass of water

And toast the living and the dead who've gone before me

And my head will throb like an old wound reopening

When I get off the bus down there my children

They all are going to greet me at the station

Like gypsies they will dance around meMountain Goats - Quito - http://motolyrics.com/mountain-goats/quito-lyrics.html

And the choral droning sound their voices make will saturate the evening

When I get off the wheel I'm going to stop

And make amends to everyone I've wounded

And when I wave my magic wand

Those few who've slipped the surly bonds

Will rise like salmon at the spawning
