Name: The Moon And The Levee
Duration: P00H02M33S
Description: Originally written as a lullaby in 3/4 time, I thought this might be interesting to straighten out while trying to maintain the slightly dreamier quality of the melody. Like Liars this began as a quiet piece except that The Moon is free of cynicism which makes it feel right as the last track. Goodnight moon.

lyrics

The Moon And The Levee

Oh, the moon hangs over head
Shining its light onto your bed
Are your eyes feeling heavy?
Are your dreams bursting through the levee?

So the cow jumped over the moon
Pulled by a string and pushed by a spoon
Are your eyes feeling heavy?
Are your dreams bursting through the levee?

Can you see that ball of cheese
Swinging so high above the breeze?
Are your eyes feeling heavy?
Are your dreams bursting through the levee?

The only thing that stops me from comparing this to Toots & The Maytals is the perfection and precision of the Delegators’ musicianship and Janet’s vocals. marc_ian
