Nevers
de The Fiery Furnaces
There's a town I know called Nevers,
no Nevers
never wasn't was what it weren't
when it wasn't once. Knew Nevers?
Knew Nevers?
Nothing never I'll ever learnt.
There's a village I visit, that's Vaguely;
Sorta Vaguely.
vaguely yes I seem to recall.
though it's unclear clearly- vaguely?
Very vaguely.
can't say it's been there once and for all.
I put back on my overshoes
and got in my Renault.
The trips reset so I'm unsure
how far it is to go:-
But then it hits me (slap)-
I've left it off my map!
There's a city I saw signed Something-
must be something.
something never quite so defined,
so much so how somewhere something
(though some sing)
so to speak's the uncertain kind.
In an index looked up Where-it-was,
exactly where it was,
just in fact to make sure I can't
set a course straight through to where it ain't
and where it ain't
ain't gotten to except at a slant.
I put on my new black boots
and pack up my Citroen.
And out of town it huffs and puffs;
I set off there alone.-
And then it hits me (slap)-
I've left it off my map.
There's a place I passed called once upon a time-
tiny once upon a time-
never wasn't weren't what it was.
Set the clock back twice or once upon a time
in once upon a time-
never knew when it wasn't there because
