Jane Siberry - The Bird In The Gravel

the master:
I was dreaming in the steam room
everything was so clear for a minute
and I thought...
and the dripping tiles and...
and I said I'll confess everything
yes. I own this land
I own these forests surrounding my

...my estate
this is my tea coming
everything I can - I confess

the servant:
bend now I have the bend
the best I ever
place the tea just so
then release and turn
oh no not yet
then release and turn
turn away then go
better try again
looking at me he's
wait 'til tomorrow
don't want him to know
next time he orders tea
release and turn
turn and limp away
turn and limp away
