(BABYDOCTOR - Three ways of staring at the sun)
 Thank you Thank you Babydoctor
 Babydoctor Thank you
 And you count out the years you have been here
 in this foreign land
 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
 Fourteen years Here Jalal Jalal Babydoctor
 And you cound out the years you've been deprived
 the use of your hand
 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
 Thirteen years Stroke
 Straggering walker it takes you two lights
 to cross the street
 Traffic is backed-up here at the place
 where cars and people meet
 The very fast and the very slow
 Beg for a ride and choke out a stream of words
 as I drive
 A mantra of thanks and counting out years that buries me alive
 In the light of your humble and proud handful of
 mispronounced words
 And I fall to my knees in the shade of a tree and
 cry Thank you
 I look into the sun until it blinds me
 I look into the sun until I go blind
 I am raped by the light of the light until I am the
 son of the sun
 I am replaced
 Hail and praise the all-seeing eye of Pelton & Crane
 I open my mouth to the all-seeing eye of Pelton & Crane
 Pelton & Crane I am replaced
 Thank you
