Strange phenomena - Kate Bush





Soon it will be the phase of the moon
When people tune in.
Every girl knows about the punctual blues,
But whos to know the power behind our moves?

A day of coincidence with the radio, [1]
And a word that wont go away. [2]
We know what theyre all going to say.
G arrives--funny, had a feeling he was on his way! [3]

We raise our hats to the strange phenomena.
Soul-birds of a feather flock together.
[4]
We raise our hats to the hand a-moulding us.
Sure nuff, he has the answer,
He has the answer
He has the answer, be-duh-be-duh-be-duh-be-duh...
[5]
Om mani padme,
Om mani padme,
Om mani padme hum.*

You pick up a paper. You read a name.
You go out. it turns up again and again.
You bump into a friend you havent seen for a long time,
Then into another you only thought about last night.

You hear your sister calling for you,
But you dont know where from.
You know theres something wrong,
But you dont want to believe in a premonition.
[6]

We raise our hats to the strange phenomena.
Soul-birds of a feather flock together.
We raise our hats to the hand a-moulding us.
Sure nuff, he has the answer,
He has the answer
He has the answer, be-duh-be-duh-be-duh-be-duh...
Om mani padme,
Om mani padme,
Om mani padme hum.

Om mani padme hum.
Om mani padme hum.
Om mani padme hum.
Om mani padme hum...

[1] Coincidences on the radio may refer to pop music lyrics pointing at the events.
[2] Probably referring to the word of God.
[3] Probably referring to the return of God. Because nobody knew that God is a woman, God is referred as a male.
[4] Strange phenomena, including the gathering of birds, surround this.
[5] People expect that God has all the answers.
[6] She is giving him a warning.
