Heraclitus – ExperiMental Music

LYRICS
In case you are mixed up
The world is a flux
It keeps on changing
If times are the same
Why the different name
All the rearranging

Et tu, Brutus?
In the back of all of us
Shaking my head in disgust
… kicking up dust

What will it take
Not to make the same mistake
Is flux a fake
An in the grass snake?

Wading in the sands of time
Will I find…
I’m sinking quick (sand quicksand quick sand)
Can anytime be mine
Will I find
I’m a fleeting man, and….

LYRICS
Is there change in the air
Is there change in the anywhere
Is this change uncompared

All a flux for those with bucks

I see London. I see France.
Seeing politicians in their underpants
Ashes, ashes, we all fall down
The bigger the crown the harder the down

Re-arrange their despair
Sending hope from here to there
Cause the change if you’re aware

All a flux for those with bucks

It’s a song about change and voting on election day.

Heraclitus is famous for his insistence on ever-present change in the universe, as stated in the famous saying, “No man ever steps in the same river twice.”

Plato argues against Heraclitus as follows:
How can that be a real thing which is never in the same state? … for at the moment that the observer approaches, then they become other … so that you cannot get any further in knowing their nature or state …. but if that which knows and that which is known exist ever … then I do not think they can resemble a process or flux ….

Written and recorded at Everhart Park in West Chester, Chester County, Pennsylvania, USA
