gecko – volcano lyrics

verse:
i woke up from such a deep sleep
if i didn’t know better i’d think i’d been asleep for weeks
yesterday was the first day of winter
so i took an early night, just something i’m into
snow covered, forest floor all over
not my scene, i may be a bear but i’m not a polar:
iciness on my feet just feels against nature
even the squirrels have been acting so strange lately
they gathered up all the food that could be found
didn’t eat any they just buried it in the ground
it was completely nuts

i thought it could have been a religious thing, maybe
but i’m not that clued up on bushy tailed deities
so i got myself all cosy deep inside my den
some say i live in a right hole
but my hole is actually two trees down on the left
past the badgers and the foxes, it’s a pretty mixed area
up and coming
with really great scenery and decent connections
to the central forest amenities
it’s been in the family for years
back then it was an absolute steal:
i mean, literally, my grandad nicked it from a wolverine
but this morning something happened, you won’t believe
i was so confused i thought i must have been deceived
somehow i thought what i was seeing must be wrong
but the trees were now green and the snow – it was completely gone

speckled light was seeping through any tree top sp-ces
i heard male birds sing explicit songs about mating
all the animals in fact seem to be breeding like rabbits
and the rabbits only took breaks between breeding to eat cabbage
my reality was unravelling
i’m just a bear, i don’t think i could bear time travelling
went to the river, to cool off and get my head straight
and got hit by about fifty salmon jumping directly in my face
found my dad, asked him if i need herbal medication
he said, “son, it’s time we had a talk, ’bout hibernation.”

chorus:

though seasons change
the feelings don’t
what’s at the top of the volcano
is not yet set in stone
though seasons change
the feelings don’t
what’s at the top of the volcano
is not yet set in stone
what a palaver, there’s no b-tterfly here, it’s all just lava

verse(2):

i woke up to a bright light, hard to adjust to
i had to close my eyes a few times to get accustomed
couldn’t see anything other than pure white
my mind started searching, i thought maybe i’d died
disorientated, my heart started pounding;
tried to speak, but i just couldn’t get the sound out
i couldn’t remember anything, it was the strangest feeling
then i realised the white was just the ceiling
turning my head took pretty much all my powers
i saw some cards and the most ridiculous amount of flowers
hospital room had almost become a forest
thought whatever happens i could probably become a florist
i drifted off again, but when i regained consciousness
a new face appeared, and things got complicated
i was just staring at her, i thought i know this face
but my head was just far too over the place
then it hit me – she’s the spitting image of my daughter but
my daughter was a h-ll’ver lot shorter:
my daughter still wanted to be lifted on my shoulders
but there was my daughter – she was just older

how long was i gone, i could hear the new years countdown
like, trying to clutch at straws whilst a wolf blows your house down
this isn’t fair – i thought of all the moments i’d missed
birthdays, christmases, angry family camping holidays
i hadn’t been there for all that – now it’s past me, the good and the bad
even the dad dancing – my reality was unravelling
i’m just a man – i don’t think i could handle time travelling
she said, “i know you’re feeling shaken up
but dad, thanks for waking up.”

chorus:

it’s all just lava… (ad lib to end)
