    You should check out this rock that I found.
    It isn't very pretty or particularly round.
    You endeavour to be clever, detangle and expound.
    On meaning in the life of a fly that has drowned

    In a swirling aquifer of a foreign land.
    Laughing in the dark as an invisible hand
    Pragmatically skirts the fading drone.
    An augury for all the good that we condone.

    Well there's something right about everything
    You say when you're talking about anything.
    And I know you don't know what I want to know
    Even though I might ask just to see if you say so.

    And who's to say where the good days start.
    When the air tastes better and the oceans part.
    An old man once told me he was never spoon fed,
    But he needed three hands to get out of bed.

    Je monte pour la dernière fois
    Pour raconter mon histoir à toi.
    Je cherche la chance, mais la chance est parti
    La lumière dance; l'idée est pourri.

    Somewhere on a shelf in isle nine
    Next to a tranquil old man killing time
    Reading nursery rhymes with a silver lorgnette
    There's a book on this; I haven't read it yet.

    Well some days flash by and go straight to years.
    Some people last forever if they're made of tears.
    You're a little too bright to be living here,
    And if you find out I'll have one less fear.
