The Fossil

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

If a frozen fossil
Said his prayers to the moon
I know they’re coming soon
So soon
Each day I greet these frozen dinners
Because they’re my family

I learn the credo well
As it is taught to me
They live on top of me

All these years
Read the signs
Fifty years ago in time
Petrified
Homogenized
Layers of the forgotten
The worst generation
The one that was mine

I learn the credo well
As it is taught to me
I learned to crawl on the land
I always thought I would leave
I always thought I would lead
They live on top of me
They live on top of me
They live on top of me

Lightning strikes the heart
Blood beating cooly
Now tearing skin apart
Severed from the ground
So glad that I am found
Frozen fossil
Frozen fossil

You’re so proud
You play it loud
I’m slipping out of the buzz
The here and now
But don’t forget where you were born
Who was there?
