[Intro] [Verse 1] Wet earth sharp reed a mark for barley a mark for beer a mark for the back that carried both [Pre-Chorus] Say it once it dies with the mouth press it in it waits [Chorus] Count it keep it the clay does not forget what the throat lets go the tablet holds [Verse 2] Names of the living measured in grain who came who ate who owed the house at dusk [Chorus] Count it keep it the clay does not forget what the throat lets go the tablet holds [Verse 3] No hymn yet no king in the sky only the list that outlasts the lister [Bridge] Tomorrow reads today a generation borrows the hand story will come thought will come they ride this receipt [Final Chorus] Count it keep it the clay does not forget we pass the measure on the tablet holds [Outro]
