Matches For The Fuse

Words by Paul Streckfus
Music by Jorge Lara, Lino Max, Juan Ramos, Ernest Salaz, and Paul Streckfus

Matches fit into a small box
That is where they stay dry
But once a match is lit
Will let fire fly
Straight up and down
Like words
Printed by a machine
Bold and black
And black on white
And organized
I wanted to find you
I’m going to find it

Soldiers at attention
Ready for war with apprehension
Soldiers
Ready for war
They got more than they bargained for
Coming through on the tube
A man with a piece
On his head said
There's a moon
Encircling
Satellite give us war crime scene
I wanted to find you
I’m going to find it

I dodged five crazy motorists
My brother and sister shooting bullets
Send me back
In a box over the sea
Matches for the fuse
Feeds the bomb that I sling

A man once lit himself
And his smoke was uncontrolled
He let it roll up to the sky
That looks down
So cold
All the king's horses
All the king's men
Threw up their arms
At the sight of his skin
Burning
He was made from the mold
Another matchbox
Another matchbox
Another matchbox sentinel
