New Sum [Nous Sommes] - Hey Rosetta!

Oh see the great citizens

With all their white sticks tapping brick

They can’t see the wire strung in between them

And all that young scum reeling

But oh you do your blinded best

With all these arrows through your chest

Feel em forcing through and they’re forcing you

To follow through to where they want you

Was it a trick of light?

shook my head from side to side

I seen a million lines, the finest thread strung spine to spine

Animals run on the sidewalks

Animals run in the national parks

And all the bankers and all the beggars and all the bears are brothers

Is it a trick of light?

I shake my head from side to side

We rub our eyes and shake our fists at the passersby

We scare the kids but mama it’s all for the best

What is the new sum, us tied up?

with no thumbs?

Is it a noose hung?

and us tied up?

with no thumbs?

Yeah but in the new sum you gotta count us, we see the lines run

We see the lines run, can you see them?

can you see them?

Can you see them?
