If I close my eyes long enough will you happen to me again?

Not a stranger not a villain just another note to pass on

And on and on

A thousand birds on a wire

One of which has dreams of flying and cannot do it alone

Rather he clean his feathers again and again.

Ruby they came in loving such stars

Diamonds in their mirrors of mine

And eyes

Their bright blinking eyes

Seeing everything for what it is

As it is

There are birds all on a wire

How wonderful is that?

Hear them on their talking stones

Sharing stories of love

The gentlemen and sweethearts and their weddings and their doves

They talked about their dream girl how she left and went away

In the arms of her ghost they knew they couldn’t stay

So alone

So they moved on like everyone else does

I heard them say day by day

They took a chance with a dance

They would swing and they would sway

And in the motion of their feet

They danced off with their eyes

Oh how wonderful they’ll be.

Heavy fever

yeah I’ve got it

Spilled salt

Not my fault.

Terrific winner of skin suffocation

Painted in gold on fire

What a rich man he was

They shot his money toward the sun

Twenty three dollars and sixty seven cents

Rockets are expensive.

Ladies and gentlemen

Don’t let you kids become cannibals.

I have always found this in you

Something I can’t say

It’s when you kiss me every morning

And every night of every day

From the deepest ocean

We did climb the mountain to the sun

And from up high we saw the world

Every part was right for us

I would tumble down

And break my crown

You will come tumbling after

You will come tumbling after

Hanalin the two headed ******* deer

She wants that lion to be so cruel

To twist her next and tie it in a knot

And walk up and down the world in one breath

There are no kings allowed in the garden of eden

The snagging tooth in the lions bite quickly kills snakes

Where in teeth as razor as breath

A serpents birth on vicious bone

Lives nothing more than a worm in the lions throat

Better not tickle that rough tongue.
