Lyrics for Wheat Futures

Please listen carefully, I'll not say this twice: We must prepare for the digging of holes, Spontaneous combustion of keyholes and curtains, And an irreversible rise in the standard of living of ordinary working people. Pay attention, I'll say this just the once: We must pretend that nothing happens untoward, Put on a brave face – "Alright?" "Alright." Only memory and loneliness remain.
