In Martha's Vineyard There is no sound Two hundred years ago Signer's arms moved to and fro But there is music There are sign choirs In western gardens west Lies an old canoe of fiberglass Under the jawbones of a whale Propped up against the garden rail And through their pointed archway Can be seen volcanic hills Can you feel the footsteps of your fore-bearers? Underground how would the wind sound? Do you remember a bird in the muffled box? Caterpillar doomed on the hill Earth tones reverberate Elaborate windy gate Speak slow speak low And they'll send you a sign Speak slow speak low And they'll send you a sign Speak slow speak low And they'll send you a sign Speak slow speak low And they'll send you a sign
