lyrics

Tribe

When she gave birth under the mouldy scaffolding
of what later should become a wooden dancehall,
the ancient women wailed.

I, at that time, was busy measuring the landscape,
marking down the points of value.

There were still traces of artificial grass,
under a soil of fungus.

That night, it occured to me that
someone of the tribe
howled against the moon.
I watched him doing it for
about eight hours,
untill the night had past.

Next morning, we discovered
someone had been stealing food from our suplies.
So we were forced to go back and leave these people.
