さてフジロックも終わったことだし、Wire動画でも貼るか（卓球のWIREじゃないよ） movie

マイブラもトリビュート盤でカヴァーした名曲「Map Ref. 41°N 93°W」（動画だとなぜかタイトルが「Map Ref. 43°N 110°W」になってるけど）。ブルース・ギルバート目立たなさすぎ。

An unseen ruler defines with geometry
An unruleable expanse of geography
An aerial photographer over exposed
To the cartologist's 2D images knows
The areas where the waters flowed
So petrified the landscape grows
Straining eyes, try to understand

The works, incessantly in hand
The carving and pearing of the land
The quarter square, the graph divides
Beneath the rule, a country hides

Interrupting my train of thought
Lines of longitude and latitude
Define and refine my altitude

The curtains undrawn
Harness fitted: No escape
Common and peaceful: Duck
Flat lowland landscape
Canal, cannard, water coloured
Crystal palaces for floral kings
A widespread waving span of wings
Witness the sinking of the sun
A deep breath of submission has begun

Interrupting my train of thought
Lines of longitude and latitude
Define and refine my altitude

「Heartbeat」こっちもいい曲。2nd『Chairs Missing』に収録。

↓歌詞。

I never know which version I'm going to be
I seem to have so many choices open to me

It's not hard to see
another unique event
When you miss the beginning
and you miss the end

I've got forty versions all dying to get the part
And so with a change of mind
comes a change of heart

A total eclipse arrives now and Niagara Falls
No loss of life yet and no further calls

I never know which version I'm going to be
I get the feeling my mind is deceiving me

In between are
Where only edges can be seen of the spaces
