Clyde Jefferson Rag Lyrics

Clyde
I await thee, Staffbearer!
I am here, the ancient one, to destroy....
I hath arrived, you are here.
I shalt destroy the blessed sphere.
I seek thee, Staffbearer.

I am here, the winged one to destroy the Antisun.
Watch it fall from the sky, watch it fall....

From the sky it shall fall, as foretold in the scrolls.
I summon thee, Staffbearer.

I am here, the ancient one to destroy the Antisun.
Watch it fall from the sky, caressing as we die.

Will you wait?
Will you wait for me?

Harriet
I shall wait for thee....

Clyde
I would follow you into the moon.
Will you wait?
Will you wait for me?
Will you wait for me?

Harriet
I shall wait for thee!
I shall wait for thee!

Clyde
Harriet, I shalt seek thee!

Will you wait?
Will you wait for me?

I would follow you into the moon.
Will you wait?
Will you wait for me?
Will you wait for me?

Harriet
I shall wait for thee!
I shall wait for thee!

Clyde
I am awakened in the night, by the fire.
I hath come from very far away to fulfill the sacred words of the scrolls.
Bless the ancient scrolls!

I am here, the winged one to destroy the Antisun.
Watch it fall from the sky, caressing as we die.
I am the one, the winged lord!
