Lyrics

Indochina, Capa jumps Jeep, two feet creep up the road

To photo, to record meat lumps and war,

They advance as does his chance -- very yellow white flash.

A violent wrench grips mass, rips light, tears limbs like rags,

Burst so high finally Capa lands,

Mine is a watery pit. Painless with immense distance

From medic from colleague, friend, enemy,

foe, him five yards from his leg, From you Taro.

Do not spray into eyes -- I have sprayed you into my eyes.

3:10 pm, Capa pends death, quivers, last rattles, last chokes

All colours and cares glaze to grey, shrivelled and stricken to dots,

Left hand grasps what the body grasps not -- le photographe est mort.

3.1415, alive no longer my amour, faded for home May of '54

Doors open like arms my love, Painless with a great closeness

To Capa, to Capa Capa dark after nothing,

re-united with his leg and with you, Taro.

Do not spray into eyes -- I have sprayed you into my eyes.

Hey Taro!
