Trip to heave and ho, up down, to and fro
you have no word
(...)
trip, trip to a dream dragon
hide your wings in a ghost tower
(all life still
cow skull
bull skull
no bull shit*)
sails crackiling at ev'ry plate we break
cracked by scattered needles
(something awful, something true,
something with horror, something you)
little minute gong coughs and clears his throat
(read the story of the little cow who did)
madam you see before you stand
hey ho, never be still
the old original favourite gran
(favourites favourite favourite)
grasshoppers green herbarian band
and the tune they play in us confide
so trip to heave and ho, up down, to and fro'
you have no word
(...)
Please leave us here
close our eyes to the octopus ride!
(elegy of the ocean, with something else present)
Isn't it good to be lost in the wood
isn't it bad so quiet there, in the wood
you have no word
(...)

Isn't it good to be lost in the wood
isn't it bad so quiet there, in the wood
(there was this one time, though. but I never recovered)
twenty even less to me than I thought
with a honey plough of yellow prickly seeds
clover honey pots and mystic shining feed

(approaching meaning zero. me not you)
well, the madcap laughed at the man on the border
hey ho, huff the talbot
Cheetah he cried shouted kangaroo
so through their tree they cried
well, the madcap laughed at the man on the border

hey ho, huff the talbot
the winds they blew and the leaves did wag
and they'll never put me in their bag

(so, for breakfast... is it every day - I mean- that you eat?)
the seas will reach and always see
so high you go, so low you creep
the winds it blows in tropical heat
the drones they throng on mossy seats
the squeaking door will always creep
two up, two down we'll never meet
so merrily trip for good my side
the seas will reach and always see
so high you go, so low you creep
the winds it blows in tropical heat
the drones they throng on mossy seats
the squeaking door will always creep
two up, two down we'll never meet
so merrily trip for good my side
(and behind someones closet...)
Please leave us here
close our eyes to the octopus ride!
Please leave us here
close our eyes to the octopus ride!
