Amanda Palmer - Trout Heart Replica (03.28.2009) Fort Lauderdale
Amanda Palmer performs her new-ish song Trout Heart Replica. The song was inspired by the still-beating heart of a freshly gutted fish at a trout farm. Culture Room, Fort Lauderdale, FL amandapalmer.net They've been circling, they've been circling Since the day they were born It's disturbing how they're circling Fifty feet from the pond Pretty often, pretty often I don't want to be told It's a problem, it's a problem It's a problem, I know I won't keep what I can't catch In my bare hands without a net It's hard enough to walk on grass So conscious of the consequences They've been jerking, they've been jerking In a pail by the dock I know that oxygen Might make them blossom and die But I'm not gonna talk Feed them details, feed them e-mails They'll eventually grow But it's not working, it's not working Not as far as I know And killing things is not so hard It's hurting that's the hardest part And when the wizard gets to me I'm asking for a smaller heart When I got you, I thought that I got you Now I'll ruin it all Feeling helpless, acting selfish Being human and all And they're jumping, and they're jumping But they'll never get out Just keep touring, keep on ignoring Be a good little trout The butcher stops and winds his watch And lays their lives down on the block He raises up his hatchet and the Big hand strikes a compromise Wait, we'll trade you, wait Please, just one more day Then we'll go with no complaining No complaining, no complaining Stop killing Killing things ...
