[00:01.69] Patricia Barber - Whiteworld/Oedipus
[00:08.11] I arrive in the jungle
[00:09.34] In my new khaki clothes
[00:11.83] Make a splash in a pontoon plane
[00:13.64] Bought and paid for by those
[00:15.21] Who demand a tally
[00:16.65] Of the dark horse the bad seed
[00:18.52] Poking and prodding progenitors
[00:20.00] Of respiratory disease are we
[00:25.56] Whiteworld
[00:33.26] I have institutions in the West
[00:35.03] To make institutions in the East
[00:37.35] I historically revise
[00:38.17] With Deconstructionist ease
[00:41.24] To name is to own
[00:42.49] To market is to steal
[00:43.56] I'm a gangster in a Hummer
[00:46.19] & this culture will yield to me
[00:51.46] Whiteworld
[00:59.81] My policy is straight
[01:00.94] My publisher primed
[01:03.51] The natives will not
[01:04.71] Resist this time
[01:06.15] Cause I've got celebrity
[01:08.84] I translate I teach
[01:10.10] I give my heart my soul
[01:11.97] My brains my body and my
[01:13.61] Batteries
[01:16.75] Whiteworld
[02:39.10] I came on my journey
[02:41.74] To a juncture of three roads
[02:44.18] Two men in a chariot
[02:46.50] Made it impossible to go
[02:48.31] I struck the driver
[02:49.89] For pushing me aside
[02:51.71] The old man struck me back
[02:53.68] So that I
[02:56.30] Had to kill them all
[03:03.19] Whiteworld
[04:43.93] I can change water into wine
[04:45.73] Solve the riddle for the Sphinx
[04:47.60] I like the perfectly primitive
[04:49.47] Cause they desperately need
[04:51.46] My sovereignty
[04:52.34] Over Third World Thebes
[04:55.08] I'm a First World Oedipus
[04:57.09] And Mother Earth is
[04:58.47] Down on her knees
[05:02.00] Whiteworld
