We watched as canons blast from space And turn this place to dust A bomb blast echoes through the haze The waves bring bloody suds While they please us from the radio They sieze us with their radio They tease from their radio Just freeze us with their radio
2.
I’m drunk in my car and I’m drivin through Finland Where lights are a stage of stars in my window That shine with a neon glow Rooftops and radio I’m drunk in my car and I’m headed through Finland Where the lights are a kingdom of stars in my window That shine with the neon glow Rooftops and radio And I’m headed for nowhere

Karen 02:43
Karen rides a giant flume Lightnin speed across the ocean To her microscopic room Will she find a bridegroom there? Avi’s in his Irish castle Cape and all….tassles In the tan light he looks like A king without his wife Cryin for each other Dyin for each other

Evelyn 01:45
6.
Your legacy’s left a long time ago But allow us to sing your praise We praise the ones who never gave up The ones who tried to make it The sun the morning stars All bow at your attention
7.
Cracks 06:17
All the space in the cracks have formed a muddled pool of grey And the rings around her eyes are cracked and full of sin She packs it in a little suitcase Rides it through the meadows All again we rain and roll She sits down by a wall again and crosses her legs and cries But it flies in time Like wings she rolls away

Jacob 03:14
Jacob’s family fifteen down to nine Lost six down in a coal mine Pay rent to a company man No help from a company plan Will it be the same for me? Will I work for the company?
10.
The Bowery 02:29
In pits of pleasure, in the bowery We got bored and hopped the fence We lit a cigarette and walked on and on and on… Beneath the killing stars
11.
Pled his case, dressed in white Held a whore at his side All the while they cast stones

About The Cloud -

An eerie sister album to “War In The World Of Animals”, “The Cloud” LP consists of tracks that were recorded during the same period as the War record. This album is strange and beautiful, ending with an epic 16 minute instrumental. It also includes a live radio performance and a new bonus track “Karen” which was written during the same time period but never recorded until now specifically for this release!
