First Movement	A
	-
Thin voiced nasal pipes	B
Drawing sound out and out	C
Until it is a screeching thread	D
Sharp and cutting sharp and cutting	E
It hurts	F
Whee e e	G
Bump Bump Tong ti bump	H
There are drums here	I
Banging	E
And wooden shoes beating the round grey stones	J
Of the market place	K
Whee e e	G
Sabots slapping the worn old stones	J
And a shaking and cracking of dancing bones	J
Clumsy and hard they are	L
And uneven	M
Losing half a beat	N
Because the stones are slippery	G
Bump e ty tong Whee e e Tong	O
The thin Spring leaves	P
Shake to the banging of shoes	Q
Shoes beat slap	R
Shuffle rap	R
And the nasal pipes squeal with their pigs' voices	S
Little pigs' voices	S
Weaving among the dancers	T
A fine white thread	D
Linking up the dancers	T
Bang Bump Tong	O
Petticoats	U
Stockings	V
Sabots	V
Delirium flapping its thigh bones	V
Red blue yellow	W
Drunkenness steaming in colours	V
Red yellow blue	X
Colours and flesh weaving together	Y
In and out with the dance	V
Coarse stuffs and hot flesh weaving together	Y
Pigs' cries white and tenuous	V
White and painful	Z
White and	A2
Bump	H
Tong	O
	-
Second Movement	A
	-
Pale violin music whiffs across the moon	B2
A pale smoke of violin music blows over the moon	B2
Cherry petals fall and flutter	Y
And the white Pierrot	A
Wreathed in the smoke of the violins	V
Splashed with cherry petals falling falling	E
Claws a grave for himself in the fresh earth	C2
With his finger nails	V
	-
Third Movement	A
	-
An organ growls in the heavy roof groins of a church	D2
It wheezes and coughs	V
The nave is blue with incense	V
Writhing twisting	E
Snaking over the heads of the chanting priests	V
Requiem aeternam dona ei Domine'	B2
The priests whine their bastard Latin	B2
And the censers swing and click	E2
The priests walk endlessly	G
Round and round	A
Droning their Latin	B2
Off the key	G
The organ crashes out in a flaring chord	A
And the priests hitch their chant up half a tone	B2
Dies illa dies irae	Y
Calamitatis et miseriae	Y
Dies magna et amara valde '	-
A wind rattles the leaded windows	V
The little pear shaped candle flames leap and flutter	Y
Dies illa dies irae '	-
The swaying smoke drifts over the altar	Y
Calamitatis et miseriae '	-
The shuffling priests sprinkle holy water	Y
Dies magna et amara valde '	-
And there is a stark stillness in the midst of them	F2
Stretched upon a bier	Y
His ears are stone to the organ	B2
His eyes are flint to the candles	V
His body is ice to the water	Y
Chant priests	V
Whine shuffle genuflect	A
He will always be as rigid as he is now	B2
Until he crumbles away in a dust heap	G2
Lacrymosa dies illa	G
Qua resurget ex favilla	G
Judicandus homo reus '	-
Above the grey pillars the roof is in darkness	V
