Laurie Anderson - A Curious Phenomenon lyrics
[Laurie Anderson - A Curious Phenomenon lyrics]
Of a curious phenomenon
Deep in the deciduous woods
Of Southern Illinois
In the midst of the underbrush there is a
Clearing revealing a circle of
Short wooden tree-stump-like
Structures in the middle of that
Circle there is a
Post-and-lintel structure the entire circular
Configuration is oriented
Toward the exact point at which the sun rises
On the day of the summer solstice
Who built this structure? And for
What purpose? To what end?
A primitive calendar? A center of
Worship? A lost tribe?
A mystery that continues to
Cloud the American brain
