I've worked 35 years on this
Encylopedia
Could you spend time here?
Pushed against the speaker?
Dark and dusty mineshaft
Galactica
Any old amount of time
Trust the boy to write that line
Chip away
The head of a pin
We've good amenities
Some lovers drawn on their knees
Lack of light for cutting carbon
Revelation: You and Me
The food's good locally
Where pen met paper
Now stop, I don't need to understand
How the party trick works, the sleight of hand.
I know that lawn furniture's no good
Covered in snow
And words without action never to heaven go.
But still no polytope,
No poem,
No business plan,
No leisure-park-lovin',
No more lessons from the bandstand
Voices out of nothing, good trick
My lonely hieroglyph
I press my uniform
From this lumpy bed
Moving together now
Think I'm dancing with Hypatia
Let's go to the movies
It's meant to be a true story
Looking out for one another
Maybe i'll step on your toe
Shall I get the car?
Going on and on
A mutual endeavour
Again and again
Where does it begin?
It's a drummer's crush
Now stop, I don't want to understand
How you could ball up the dry grass, and set it alight in your hand.
I know that lawn furniture's no good
Covered in snow
And words without action never to heaven go.
But still no polytope,
No poem,
No business plan,
No leisure-park-lovin',
No more lessons from the bandstand.
I saw a spooky ad, Perhaps the spookiest: "Home is all the leading brands for 60% less!"
