How I Spent My Fall Vacation (Live) Bruce Cockburn

[Verse 1]
Sun went down looking like the eye of God
Behind icy mist and stark bare trees
Inside the dim empty cinema two guys in leather jackets
Glance at each other and shiver
"They never built these places with winter in mind"
Out the window down the gray road
You can see an old walled monastery
Now become a barracks for the paramilitary police

[Chorus]
Duh duh duh duh duh duh duh, duh duh duh duh
Duh duh duh duh, uh duh duh duh duh
Duh duh duh duh duh duh duh, duh duh duh duh
Duh duh duh duh, uh duh duh duh duh
Duh duh duh duh duh duh duh, duh duh duh duh
Duh duh duh duh, duh duh duh duh
Duh duh duh duh duh duh duh, duh duh duh duh
Uh duh duh duh duh, duh duh duh

[Verse 2]
I saw an old lady's face once on a Japanese train
Half lit, rich with soft luminosity
She was dozing straight upright
Head bobbing almost imperceptibly
The wheels were playing fast in 9/8 time
Her husband's friendly face suddenly folded up in a sneeze
Across the strait a volcano
Flew a white smoke flag of surrender
