the oh hellos - rio grande lyrics
somewhere down south of here
there’s a woman with an armload of grass
weaving a basket
that’ll float the rio grande
she’ll send her baby on it
the river running wild and fast
to curry the favor
of whatever pharaoh owns the land
a seed of an idea, like mustard greens
like newborn fingers
curled and half asleep
awake
from her mouth, a vineyard
of swears and hallelujahs entwined
a new wine is vinted
a blend of sweet commandment
oh, to h+ll with the semantics
the camel and the cable confide
the eye of a needle
is tall enough to stand inside
a seed of an idea, like mustard greens
like newborn fingers
curled and half asleep
awake with a thunder from underneath
stretch up and reach through
the hardest part of me
may all our tinfoil idols
lay crumpled on the ground
and our pre+fab olympus
divided by the thousand
oh, maybe i’m naive for thinking
that a mountain so stubborn can move
but if i’m a mountain moving
i think maybe you can be, too
