laurie anderson - progress (live) lyrics
hansel and gretel are alive and well
and they’re living in berlin
she is a c-cktail waitress
he had a part in a f-ssbinder film
and they sit around at night now
drinking schnapps and gin
and she says: “hansel, you’re really bringing me down.”
and he says: “gretel, you can really be a b-tch.”
he says: “i’ve wasted my life
on our stupid legend
when my one and only love
was the wicked witch.”
she said: “what is history?”
and he said: “history is an angel
being blown
backwards
into the future.”
he said: “history is a pile of debris
and the angel wants to go back and fix things
to repair the things that have been broken.”
but there is a storm blowing from paradise
and the storm keeps blowing the angel
backwards
into the future
and this storm
this storm
is called
progress
