THE TALE O
F THEGIANT
STONE EATE
RCOMMENTAT
OR: Hear this the tale of the giant stone eater
GIRL: Gather round boys and girls and listen
MAN: To the tale of the giant stone eaterand how the earth was ravagedduring the years of the great stone shortage...
COMMENTATO
R: Raised the price of diesel oiland yellow painted signs zigzaggedblack lines of warning......
GIRL & MAN:
Another tree dies of shame.....
MAN: Sudden-savage-shining-solid-soiled-solid-sanded
Steel-shuddering-shattering-shovelling until the
Sabre toothed rooter roots the earth
The eater eats his fill and is not satisfied and
Roars and reves his mathematical rageon the footprints of
Vikingstrapped on a sonic tape recorderten million years old, ten million years old, ten million years old.
GIRL: A broken antler points the way to the still pondwhere reflections of bonnie
Prince Charlie lies wounded in theshallow water sun shining on chrome surfacesprotecting the tales of a grandfather -march on!
GIRL & MAN:
Journeys unstarted measure space for future parking lots
Journeys unstarted measure space
Journeys unstarted measure space for the future
COMMENTATO
R: And - underneath a million tons of cold lavaa brontasaurus lies wrong way up.
GIRL: Right way straight ahead
MAN: Hamburgers at the barn dance tonight!
COMMENTATO
R: Average speed 100 mphsixteen lane highways cross the meadows
GIRL: Plastic space agents selling candy-floss contracts
ALL TOGETH
ER: Bells ringing "ring ring" split, grind and grovel
Lost iron relics ringing on the cold stone
GIRL: A spated river flows up hilldirections change in the
New Age rain on
Tuesdays...
COMMENTATO
R: Thursdays guaranteed dry!...
Guaranteed dry while handmade golf coursesweary of trickery and fraud
Grey slates remain grey slates -floods as required life silently reforms in the pools of stagnation.
Each layer a civilisation - buy your own layer
The eater eats again retches roars and vomitshis computerised future is bright with security
Headshrinkers analyse the unknown....
Meanwhile another tree dies of shame
ALL TOGETH
ER: And another tree dies of shame.....
