1, 2, 3, 4, 5.

She said she would move if we would just improve

Then the sails broke and we joked as the tea spoke

Now with the water high night is nigh and were alright

Can it be that love is here and time is nowhere near?

 

See the flower tasting sour won't you come on over?

Tongues are tied wrists are limp my pen is broken need a stick

After this nap we'll dump the sack head off books on our backs

Were young and dead old and feared with no sign of creakin' bed

 

Write what nothing holds true for if you do the blue will sue

Heads will turn as you will burn on a stake made of copper n' zeal

No neither hands are feeding inspirations curse don't burst

Mother made her hand here and now there's nothing no nothin' to hear

 

Oh' all along ears bend and spend their lives cooly listening

Don't send your ears down the block for the clock has stopped

I listen to the tunes of buffoons who dance around like happy loons

A child tears up as he bares up another rafter of stale **** candy

 

At this time drinks are drinks and dames are dames and I'm still tame

I don't think myself lame or famed worded or locked up n' boarded

Nor clouds white as milk cool as silk stand on stilts dirtied felt

A smile is all one needs to feel the speed of a life worth lived
