Something’s going on
In places no one knows about
Things listened to
Things decoded
Found. Then hidden
Don’t talk to us
We are busy
Don’t talk to me
Time’s precious
Time’s running out
We have to eat
But there’ll be time for that later
Change direction… but stick with it

Left right up down
Left right up down
Left right up down
The dance is a cold

Do you understand?

We’ll dance!
Watch carefully
Keep one eye on the weather
Watch carefully
It’s easy if you try
We’ll dance
Watch carefully, watch carefully
We’ll dance

Watch carefully
Keep one eye on the weather
Watch carefully
It’s easy if you try
We’ll dance
Watch carefully, watch carefully

Left right up down
Left right up down
We will all stop together
We will all stop together and float into the sky!

I don’t wish to speak of prophets
I don’t wish to speak of Kings
I don’t wish to wallow in second-hand myth from ancient books
I don’t wish to speak of lovers
Or regret worn old man
I don’t wish to speak of love
Or all it did to me and you

I will lie above the sea
I will lie just above the sea
Don’t shred tears for me
For I am incandescent with the life of earth
Incandescent with life!

Bring the earth to me now!
Fill me with the Garden of Eden
But not with the Gods of men
Or Pan or Alice in Wonderland
Lost sailors or souls anchored to driftwood

I will lie above the sea
I will lie just above the sea
Watch carefully
It’s easy if you try
We’ll dance

Watch carefully, watch carefully
We’ll dance
Like the twinkling light
On the ocean

Watch carefully
Keep one eye on the weather
Watch carefully
It’s easy if you try
We’ll dance
Watch carefully, watch carefully

Bring the earth to me
Bring the earth to me
Bring the earth to me now
I’ll lie and I’ll become part of it
At last

Incandescent!
With life!
