Re: Your favourite Stereolab lyrics?
The Stars Our Destination
In a fluid and shifting
Creative and destructive
Like a water "planet"...
Conjunction of opposites
Active, passive principles
Freedom...fire...
Fame, glory, fire, water
I will drink fire...
Humans are capable of such creativity and such destruction . Often the result of destruction is a wave of creativity in the rebuilding effort. Laetitia says she will drink fire, not literally, but her improvement (fame - the stars) will come about from having to live out a time of hardship.
