Lisa Mitchell- The Story of the Raven and the Mushroom Man Album- Bless This Mess Lyrics taken from Bless This Mess album booklet Capo 2nd fret * = single strum [Intro] [Verse 1] Late the other day when the earth turned away I found a little book nearly blended in the grey But for its flower drawn like a child on the cover! It was the story of the Raven and the Mushroom Man He was the first real friend he ever had [Verse 2] I never want to be like that serious man Telling himself be a serious! Always counting those numbers! He’s got a red face and a mushroom head He spent too long in the rat race too long in the dead days [Interlude] [Verse 3] If only a Raven with a sore wing Could fall at his feet with eyes full of mercy The little Mushroom Man might fashion a little splint out of driftwood And he might feel a little light shine he might see his own kindness And think that “Maybe counting isn’t everything! Maybe there are more Ravens that need me more than numbers?” [Interlude] [Verse 4] The Mushroom Man loved the Raven so And deep inside his heart grew a thing called hope (hope) One Sunday night the raven was weak He didn’t wake up how the Mushroom Man weeped! It caused his planet to leak! [Verse 5] Well he buried his friend and he buried his books He looked out to space and his head he shook As he looked down gasp escaped! A sapling Rose grew from the Raven’s grave! [Verse 6] From the Raven’s grave hope had sprung! And he knew then how it had been done As he’d tended to the Raven’s wing A Seed of Hope had grown within! And now it grows for all to see and his planet is no longer just he. [Outro] C G (x4)

La chanson raconte l'histoire touchante d'un homme champignon qui, après avoir découvert un corbeau blessé, commence à éprouver de la compassion et à questionner sa propre vie matérialiste. Il s'oppose à un mode de vie sérieux et sans émotions, illustré par sa peur de l'importance des chiffres. En prenant soin du corbeau, il découvre en lui-même un sentiment d'espoir et de bienveillance, réalisant que la vraie richesse réside dans les relations et l'empathie. Le récit se déroule dans un univers où la nature et la magie se mêlent, soulignant comment un simple acte de bonté peut transformer une existence dans le désespoir en une vie pleine de sens. La mort du corbeau, loin d'être une fin, devient le terreau d'un renouveau avec une pousse qui émerge, symbolisant l'espoir et la continuité de la vie. Tout cela nous rappelle l'importance d'ouvrir nos cœurs aux autres et de ne pas se laisser enfermer par des préoccupations superficielles.
