cursed murphy versus the resistance - sometimes you sing a dark song lyrics
the year of the great war, bertolt brecht wrote: “if times get dark, will there be singing then?”
i’m not a poet or a playwright, i make tiny marks upon the greater navigator’s chart that maps the heart
though maybe there will come a day i’ll speak a melody
to make a maiden or a mother smile
’til then i’ll sing a dark song
or i’ll sing no song at all
townes van zandt swore that there’s only two songs
– zippity do dah and the blues
i can’t write like townes, i can’t even speak like townes
but one day i’d like to flatter your vanity with a romance or a madrigal
though you’d probably smell the lie
maybe it’s enough to say
whatever may come down, let it come down
thy will be done
we’ll take the two days, sing the two songs
zippity do_dah and the blues
what would eden be without the fall?
sometimes you spin from dark yarn
or spin no yarn at all
kid says to her father: “father you were in the war
what was it you saw?
were you with the blues, or were you with the reds?”
father will not answer
father will not speak of it
until the day he says
“kid, it’s not just what we saw, but what we did
this is why i take my death in daily increments
this is why i smoke these cigarettes and swab the soul with alcohol
sometimes you sing a dark song
or sing no song at all”
maybe now is not the time to write dystopian songs
nihilism is a young man’s game
no more johnny thunders, william burroughs, kurt cobain
we can’t afford the luxury of despair
but when all you’ve got are prayers made out of bits of science fiction films and punk rock songs
when all you’ve got is a gospel composed in a foxhole
you sing a dark song
or sing no song at all
