lyrics
(the horn) Three hands held this before it came to me A man I never met, his widow, then my teacher She said give it to somebody who'll play it badly And that instruction is the wisest thing I know The horn, the horn (the horn) Two lines in an archive, the horn And forty years inside it, the horn The horn The horn, the horn, the horn, the horn The archive got two lines, I got the rest The horn, the horn, the horn, the horn A man is not a record, he's a sound (solo sax, 8 bars) I found her name in an office in 2021. She died in ninety-nine. Nobody told my teacher. Nobody tells anybody anything here. This is for her. Not him. She made the decision. (band returns, gently) The horn, the horn, the horn, the horn The archive got two lines, I got the rest The horn, the horn, the horn, the horn A man is not a record, he's a sound (the horn...)
