Poetry
Dis Kapital
By NathanRoberts
19 February 2008

Another throwaway lyric.  It's melancholia with a knowing wink.  Not sure if it's a work in progress or if it says it all succinctly.  (The melody is quite gorgeous if I say so myself ...kinda Neil Young meets Radiohead but that's another story........)


If you capitalised

On all the times that I’ve failed you

It’d take a helluva long long time

You’d make a helluva profit too


When you’ve invested half your life

You wait for falling stocks to rise

I guess we’re banking on good times

But the market just fell through
