The Old Therebefore / Singing at Snakes

[Lucy Gray, Coriolanus and Festus]
You're headed for Heaven
The sweet old hereafter
And I've got one foot in the door
But before I can fly up
I've loose ends to tie up
Right here, in the old therebefore

I'll be along (Doctor Gaul, she won)
When I've finished my song
When I've shut down the band (it's over, let her out)
Played out my hand (why aren't they attacking her?)
Paid all my debts
Have no regrets (must be the singing, it's calming them)
Right here, in the old therebefore (she can't sing forever)

[Lucy Gray]
I'll catch you up when I've emptied my cup
When I've worn out my friends
When I've burned out both ends
When I've cried all my tears
When I've conquered my fears
Right here, in the old therebefore
When nothing is left anymore

I'll bring the news when I've danced off my shoes
When my body's closed down
When my boat's run aground
When I've tallied the score and I'm flat on the floor
Right here, in the old therebefore
When nothing is left anymore

When I'm pure like a dove
When I've learned how to love
Right here
In the old therebefore
When nothing is left anymore
