Kate Bush-Them heavy people

Them heavy people
(Written by Kate Bush)

Rolling the ball, rolling the ball, rolling the ball to me.
Rolling the ball, rolling the ball, rolling the ball to me.

They arrived at an inconvenient time.
I was hiding in a room in my mind.
They made me look at myself. I saw it well.
I'd shut the people out of my life.

So now I take the opportunities:
Wonderful teachers ready to teach me.
I must work on my mind. For now I realise:
Everyone of us has a heaven inside.

Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot.
Them heavy people help me.
Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot.
Rolling the ball, rolling the ball, rolling the ball to me.

They open doorways that I thought were shut for good.
They read me Gurdjieff and Jesu.
They build up my body, break me emotionally.
It's nearly killing me, but what a lovely feeling!

I love the whirling of the dervishes.
I love the beauty of rare innocence.
You don't need no crystal ball,
Don't fall for a magic wand.
We humans got it all, we perform the miracles.

Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot.
Them heavy people help me.
Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot.
Rolling the ball, rolling the ball, rolling the ball to me.
Rolling the ball, rolling the ball, rolling the ball to me.
Rolling the ball, rolling the ball...

Great song from a legendery lady !

[queenofgoblings]

It´s awesome to watch the musical evolution of this woman. Just compare this with any song from "the sensual world", for exampel But his voice is really especial.

[jballful]

her man really has hands fulll u can see the wheels turning in her brain none stop and she loves to sing out ov key just like sylvie masters are made ov this stuff by the way rolling the ball is same as taking the ball a clue to her genious......

[spiritofangela]

I love it! In addition to all of her other talents, she has a flair for comedy. I also like Coffee Homeground (the song, not the coffee).

@Katefanforever totally agree. a huge talent, a beautiful woman, so sweet and yet with all of her talent she remains humble

[BoyInFancySuit]

@PaulineCurrie Actually her voice remind me a little bit of Elizabeth Fraiser from Cocteau Twins.

@MrDant62 Sure can..any fan of the legend Kate Bush is a friend of mine.....I have always been in awe of her talent..It is so sad that so many would rather listen to snoop dog than this genius...Friends again are friends at last...Thank you

[MrDant62]

@31531552 "Can someone have too much talent?"....Not that it matters to you but I misunderstood your comment. I thought you were knocking Kate Bush. I'm a Kate Bush fan too, sooooooo I'm sorry. Bet you didn't see that coming. That said, you are right. Regardless, even if you were being critical of KB (which I now understand you were not) I shouldn't have called you an idiot. No excuse but I was having a rough morning and hadn't had my coffee yet. Anyway..can we be friends again? :)

Love the 'Thriller' Move, she's a great and perculiar singer!

@MrDant62 I'm an idiot?....for loving Kate Bush?.......that 62 stands for your IQ i'm guessing..oh and fuck off with you
