From ANDRAS JONES: ALLY WEISS was on her way to take darshan with Mother Meera, who was visiting the bay area that week in October, when she joined us by phone to ask a question to The Pop Oracle of IRA MARLOWE‘s music. If on-the-nose synchronicity is a sign we are on the right path we should probably be encouraged by today’s randomly chosen Pop Oracle song recorded by the bay area band MEERNAA.
POP ORACLE Song of The Day (January 28, 2019): MEERNAA “The Radio8Ball Theme Song”
MODERN TIMES
In the void and the haze and the six long days
When the dark and the light went separate ways
Dark and light, noon and night
Man and woman, wrong and right
And the question came when it all was young
Fork in the road on a serpent’s tongue
And the question said: do you still want more?
Do you want whatever’s behind that door?
(I’ve taken to adding a bar of space before the first chorus)
It’s always modern times
Always modern times
Every lucky day we fly
Our rocket to the other side
And don’t let go
‘Cause there isn’t far to go
Baby, hold on tight
Keep your hands inside
Came the rain and came the flood
Two by two in a river of mud
Two by two in a sea of love
Ocean covering all that was
And the walls came down
The walls came down
The waters parted and the men were drowned
And the sinners lost, the good ones saved
The unbelievers all enslaved
It’s always modern times
Always modern times
Every magic day we fly
Our rocket to the other side
And don’t be scared
Can’t you see we’re almost there?
Baby, close your eyes
Just let it all go by
And the crystal cars and the men from Mars
If they never did come, well they can’t be far
Gonna pack out things for a place we’re told
Top of the world where it still gets cold
And the water runs down, the water runs down
The sea came up where there once were towns
And you can’t go back, you don’t look back,
You never look back
It’s always modern times
Always modern times
Every precious day we fly
Our rocket to the other side
And don’t despair
Don’t you see we’re almost there?
Baby, don’t you cry
Let it all go by
It’s always modern times
Always modern times
Always modern times
