Albert Bouchard & Sandy PearlmanAbout
This chapter in the musical retelling of Pearlman’s epic tells of how its protagonist, the alien Imaginos (aka Desdenova), uses his shape-shifting abilities to turn into a buzzard and fly over the US/Mexico border, where he enters Texas and continues his journey in the United States.
Imaginos Lyrics
[Refrain]
Oh, Imaginos
Oh, Imaginos
Oh-oh-oh, Imaginos
Oh, Imaginos
Oh, Imaginos
Oh-oh-oh
[Verse 1: Jon Rogers]
Imaginos
Approached the sun (Imaginos)
In August in New Hampshire (Imaginos)
Singing songs
Nobody knew (Imaginos)
And stories left undone (Imaginos)
[Chorus: Jon Rogers]
See this fish
His scales turned green
Under such a sun
Such a sun (Such a sun)
Such a sun (Such a sun)
Such a sun
[Verse 2: Jon Rogers]
A tongue and pale
Of Texas light (Imaginos)
Descended on the border (Imaginos)
While the bird
Called Buzzardo (Imaginos)
Rattled the bones
He picked the flesh from (Imaginos)
[Chorus: Jon Rogers]
See this fish
His scales turned green
Under such a sun
Such a sun (Such a sun)
Such a sun (Such a sun)
Such a sun
[Verse 3: Jon Rogers]
Checking the sign of the Moonfleet
Roll your wheel with mine
Sometimes in the light of day
The truth proves hard to find
Actually this Buzzardo
Was Imaginos in disguise
In disguise
[Refrain]
Oh, Imaginos
Oh, Imaginos
Oh-oh-oh, Imaginos
Oh, Imaginos
Oh, Imaginos
Oh-oh-oh
[Verse 4: Jon Rogers]
Imaginos
Approached the sun (Imaginos)
In August in New Hampshire (Imaginos)
Singing songs
Nobody knew (Imaginos)
And stories left undone (Imaginos)
[Chorus: Jon Rogers]
See this fish
His scales turned green
Under such a sun
Such a sun (Such a sun)
Such a sun (Such a sun)
Such a sun
Such a sun (Such a sun)
Such a sun (Such a sun)
Such a sun (Such a sun)
(Such a sun, such a sun)
(Such a sun, such a sun)
[Outro: Jon Rogers]
I’m Buzzardo in Texas (Last Chance)
I’m a pinwheel in Vermont (Last Chance)
And gorge the Bungo Pony (Last Chance)
Last Chance (Last Chance)
I’m a rocker a roller and a spinner, too
Below that scene of subterfuge (Last Chance)
Last Chance (Last Chance)
Which is
The last chance border (Last Chance)
Last Chance (Last Chance)
(Last Chance) Last Chance (Last Chance)
On the border
(Last Chance) Last Chance (Last Chance)
(Last Chance) Last Chance (Last Chance)
On the border
(Last Chance) Last Chance (Last Chance)
(Last Chance) (Last Chance)
The last exit to Texas
