lyrics
(when the light changes) There is a minute somewhere around five when the sky decides And nobody is looking at the sky, they're looking at their hands And I watch it from the booth and I watch nine thousand lives Not notice the one thing that the whole night understands And I bring it down for eight bars so they'll look I have done this for eleven years and it works every time (the melody, enormous, no words) (second time, higher) Nine thousand people turning round at once toward the east And that is the whole job, that's it, that's the entire feast (the melody, vast) (toward the east)
