Wondering Boy Poet Lyrics
Dream on child of change
Throw your javelin through the sun
Pierce the heart of everyone
Though we push to slave the days
This is not reality, this is just formality
The cup is only being filled
For a chance to have it spilled
Flowing--just like the days
Sailing--just like the days...

this could be about Rimbaud, though knowing GBV it could also be nonsense. still, one of Rimbaud's most famous poems (The Drunken Boat) does involve flowing and sailing; the cup line also fits.
One of the shortest, and probably the best, GBV song.
