Mt. Songtext

von Super Furry Animals

I wasn't looking for a mountain, there was the mountain
It was a big fucking mountain so I climbed the mountain
It was no ordinary mountain, it was a strange looking mountain
But when I got to the top it was two foot tall, it was oh so small

But coming down from my mountain there was nothing to stop me
Prepared for the future, accomplished back left behind me
With a tortoise tempo I move on gradually
My ship was leaking, no danger I said
You can use my compass instead

From a ring a ring o' roses as we head through history
From a land that is quite cursed here come the cavalry
If the king stayed behind us detached from reality
And when the time comes you will know what I mean
When we all fall down

I wasn't looking for a mountain but there was a mountain
It was a big fucking mountain so I climbed the mountain
It was no ordinary mountain, it was a strange looking mountain
But when I got to the top it was two foot tall, it was oh so small

My mind was scrambling for a thought that was happening
Do we need more than diplomacy to get us through tragedy?
One thing is for sure you can't beat solidarity
So on my return it was clear as day, it was all okay

Might not look for the mountain but there's always a mountain
So make a molehill from the mountain and banish all mountains
Now there's no more mountains, what else can there be?
And as sunset falls the isle of wisdom told me
No matter where you go, there you are
