Peter Hammill - Accidents - Enter K

This meeting is a coincidence

Which deserves a second look:

We've seen the chapter of accidents

Become the longest in the book.

I see your face in the picture for better or worse,

All power to the accident!

Oh, the sweetest is the one I'm holding in my arms

And the fleetest is the one who survives

But the meetest is the one who's running on the spot

Where the accident's about to arrive.

I know my place on the planet, chapter and verse,

All part of the accident.

I know my place in the story, a line of blank verse,

A part of the accident.

No system worth its salt

Lays all its cards upon the table;

No discipline of thought

Will render me more able

To buck those random throws.

This meeting is a coincidence

Oh, the sweetest is the one I'm holding in my arms

And the fleetest is the one who survives

But the meetest is the one who's running on the spot

Where the accident's about to arrive...

(The accidental, the accident!)

Your face in the picture for better or worse,

All power to the accident!

I know my place on the planet, chapter and verse,

All part of the accident.

I know my place in the story, a line of blank verse,

A part of the accident.

All power to the accident,

All power to the accident!
