(Sung to "Something Better Beginning" By The Kinks)
the Han flow called me today
put on my raincoat and went out to ride
the egret lighted the way
on a boulder waiting for a fishy fry
the fog may be lifting away
from atop the cloudy mountainside
is this the start of another heartbreaker
or something better beginning
something better beginning
something better beginning
adding to my Taiwan repetoire
it's feeling near as i look far and wide
plastic bottles float on the flow
doesn't make the water turn bashful or cry
across the bank of my life
lies rudeness and arrogance two-ply
is this the start of another heartbreaker
or something better beginning
something better beginning
something better beginning
i used to work in Brooklyn from eight to three
like an ambulance running stop signs
is there is eager class here waiting for me
or am i just killing time
two turtles displaced in the Han
"they don't belong there," she said and knows why
some buddhist seeking good luck
put them there for fortune
it's really a crime
we are those turtles, i think
we live and breathe here but don't know why
is this the start of another heartbreaker
or something better beginning
something better beginning
something better beginning
