Now Lyrics - Nomeansno

Now if I had the courage 

I'd pour in your jar 

All the things that I have heard you whisper in the dark 

And when that jar was heavy 

Whith your honey confidence 

I'd put it to my lips and drink its meaning and its sense 

It has non end so let's pretend it's 

Now 

Let's get started 

Now 

Let's get started 

NOW 

Nothing could be plainer 

Than the things that have been done 

And there can be no mystery in what is yet to come 

It's now that howls at nothing 

It's now that runs and hides 

It's now that winds its spineless coils and slitters out of sight 

Your cries above the furrow 

Draw my fingers like a plow 

Through tattered ends that twist and bend about the Here and Now 

The Here is blind and helpless 

And strives against the dark 

The Now's a well of shadows where the world has come apart 

It has non end so let's pretend it's 

Now 

Let's get started 

Now 

Let's get started 

NOW 

There is precious little 

That escapes the powers that be 

The eyes that judge, the words that form our meager histories 

But when your flood surrounds me 

When the waters burst and come 

Who knows the things that I have felt, who knows what I have done 

And if I had the courage 

I'd pur into your jar 

Allt the things I have heard you whisper in the dark 

And when the jar wwas heavy 

With your honeyed confidence 

I'd put it to my lips and drink its meaning and its sense 

It has no end so let's pretend it's 

Now 

Let's get started 

Now 

Let's get started 

NOW
