They told you to tiptoe through the tulips Incase you stand on a bee And don’t sing songs of madness with the birds Because it will hurt too much Don’t laugh to hard Because you could blacken your lungs with smoke of smiles Don’t play with the stars Because people will watch in suspicion Don’t dance in the rain while the storm passes Because your muddy feet will rowen the fine floor boards
But why? Why not live and... Run as fast as you can through the tulips And while you pass brush them with your delicate fingertips And take off and fly with the bees Feel the cool breeze against your face And let it run through your hair Visit the beautiful birds And sing at the top of your lungs in unison And laugh as loud as you can And when they hear your stunning laugh They will smile out of joy And perhaps we will all smile And maybe we will all die of blackening to the lungs But it will be beautiful Fly even higher into the darkness And fetch the shimmering stars And show the constellations what pleasure you get out of dancing carelessly in the rain while the storm passes Once you are done Silently tiptoe through your house with your little muddy feet Incase you wake your sleeping parents
And do all the things you dream of Because they are in the darkness of the night And you’re busy living in the light
