    Another Song In Wonderpark's E.E. Cummings Project.
    CD: Wonderpark
    Credits: Words: E.E. Cummings Music: Danny Aronson/Wonderpark

    Story Behind the Song
    This song is a part of Wonderpark's E.E. Cummings project. It was written somewhere around 2001 in Tel Aviv and features some great local musicians (Shlomy Shaban on Piano, Shacham O on bass, Singolda on Guitar). It was the first song I ever recorded as a vocalist, and it took about a year to finish (what with our day jobs and such) and until I could get used to hearing my voice without rushing out of the studio in panic

    Lyrics
    when serpents bargain for the right to squirm
    and the sun strikes to gain a living wage-
    when thorns regard their roses with alarm
    and rainbows are insured against old age

    when every thrush may sing no new moon in
    if all screech-owls have not okayed his voice
    -and any wave signs on the dotted line
    or else an ocean is compelled to close

    then we'll believe in that incredible
    unanimal mankind(and not until)

    when the oak begs permission of the birch
    to make an acorn-valleys accuse their
    mountains of having altitude-and march
    denounces april as a saboteur

    then we'll believe in that incredible
    unanimal mankind(and not until)
