Balloon Adventure
02:56
|

I will travel the world tonight in days
In a hot air balloon of sewn duvets
I will saddle the hoisters up, take loyster cups of tea
Take a paddle in case I go too low into the sea
Light the gasoline rag Balloon Adventure
Drop the second sandbag Balloon Adventure
To the mountain and to the ivory tower
To the honey-o fields of Ovientar
I will cover in olive oil the softest soil there is
Take a compass to point me home and know just where it is
Light the gasoline rag Balloon Adventure
Drop the second sandbag Balloon Adventure

Morning Dream
01:37
|

I know you will break my heart
In the sunny season without any reason
Autumn goes away too fast
Like a Casanova, suddenly it's over
Just another morning dream
To make her head dizzy
Just another setting sun
Don't mean to hurt no one
Did it cut away too fast
Lay him down for treason, tape her down and tease him
Eating till the heart's desire
Taste the garden miso, till her eyes will see so

Marigan Child

Catch that little boat of steel
Catch that little boat
Catch that little boat of steel
Run the spitter-choke away
Run the spitter-choke
Run the spitter-choke away
And she says it's a ... Marigan child
And she starts to sigh ... Marigan child
Touch that jeckle dog of gold
Touch that jeckle dog
Touch that jeckle dog of gold
Turn that kettle cog of old
Turn that kettle cog
Turn that kettle cog of old
And she says it's a ... Marigan child
And she starts to sigh ... Marigan child
Say it's alright

As The Bomb Falls Down
02:46

As the bomb falls down
You don't have to say a word
Close your eyes, my dear
It's over soon
She's a modern girl
And her eyes are closing tight
As the shrapnel hits the bedroom wall
And that's all
He's a writer man
And his book is almost done
Chapter seventeen
The final scene
As his pen goes down
A distraction's overcome
As she steals one kiss and whispers true
"I love you"
And she hold him tight
With the strangest smile you've seen
With her breath so warm
She whispers on
As the bomb falls down
"You don't have to say a word;
Close your eyes my dear,
It's over soon ... it's over soon."

Train Disaster
03:57
|
|||
As the teddy glove is rolled here
In a washing solvent
In a washing well
Soon though, teddy owner's judo
Lesson ends in pseudo
Fighting; hard to tell
And it's over faster
Than a train disaster
As the owner's very precious
Shiny golden treasures
From the teddy's ma
Dolka, teddy's owner stoked her
Caught the fleeting joker
... didn't get too far
And it's over faster
Than a train disaster

Float On A Feather
02:57
|
|||
Under the heavens shining so brightly
Holding each other's fingers so tightly
We'll go together
Float on a feather
Not knowing whether rain will come tonight
But we'll be alright
Over the land so low and so slightly
Throw off and toss your fears of heights heightly
We'll go together
Float on a feather
Not knowing whether rain will come tonight
But we'll be alright
Over the harbour views oh so slightly
Fade off and cross your fingers so tightly
We'll go together
Float on a feather
Not knowing whether rain will come tonight
But we'll be alright ...

Darkest Day
02:26
|

On this darkest day
On this darkest day
On this day they don't try to listen
They're just staring at the wall
Tape the darkness down
Tape the darkness down
And these stars - they don't try to listen
They're just scared forever more
Understand that's all it is
Understand that's all it is
Understand that's all it is
On this darkest day
On this darkest day
On this day they don't try to listen
Read the morning paper at the weekly section
Weekly news; lemon shares have risen
They don't care a dime at all

Go to a party
Helium Arty
Duddum-dee wine that's oh so tarty
That's why we go
That's why we go
When it's all over
How long did it go for
How long to see the sun go over
That's why we go
That's why we go
Who stole the sand from the hourglass at hand
Who caught the light from the embers of time
From the end of the road ... end of the road
From the end of the road ... end of the road
Eighty and over
Living in Dover
When you fall off your chair it's over
That's why we go
That's why we go
I'm a new voter
And a receiver
And I'm a tiny bean believer
And that is why
And that is why
Who stole that sand form the hourglass at hand
Who caught the light form the embers of time
From the end of the road ... end of the road
From the end of the road ... end of the road
End of the road
