Yesterday, I was in the Splinterlands Tavern and there was talk of ghost beavers. Talk and gifs. It got me thinking about a ghost beavers song, and this is how it ended up. I think it sounds a bit Pinkfloydian.
Lyrics
Ghost beavers in the river Chewing logs you cannot see Building dams without a sound Setting all the water free
You try to steer, you try to fight Grip the paddle way too tight But they just gnaw right through the night Ghost beavers, ghost beavers
Let it flow… let it flow… Trust the Ghost Beavers They know… they know… Trust the Ghost Beavers
Let it flow… let the water rise Trust the Ghost Beavers Open up your eyes
Farmer called a helper once Ghost showed up and worked all day But when he said “sort these potatoes” The helper faded clean away
Too many choices, mind goes blank Everything starts to break Ghost beavers never think that way They just build… they just play
Let it flow… let it flow… Trust the Ghost Beavers They know… they know… Trust the Ghost Beavers
Let it flow… watch the river bend Trust the Ghost Beavers This is how it ends… and begins again
I don’t know… I don’t know… And that’s okay Ghost tail slap in the dark Washes all the worry away
Everything is fading slow Snow upon the sand Let the beavers do their thing Surrender… take my hand
Let it flow… let it flow… Trust the Ghost Beavers They know… they know… Trust the Ghost Beavers
Let it flow… through the trees and me Trust the Ghost Beavers Set your spirit free… Ghost beavers… ghost beavers…
