Most every day, I’m relating more to the animals at the local zoo Where all the rocks are artificial Oh, Sir David Please bring back the Holocene Before it’s all been auctioned off Can you have it broadcast on the BBC? Pulling on the threads of heaven We’re unweaving the rainbow forever And ever Come on everyone Detonate all of your WMD’s All at once All over the place On the count of three Now let’s be honest No one loves us like Jane Goodall loves chimpanzees Resort to God, astrology Turns out it’s all just make-believe Pulling on the threads of heaven We’re unweaving the rainbow forever And ever Pulling on the threads of heaven, together We’re unweaving the rainbow forever And ever And ever And ever

Another amazing day to open shop I heard the Dow Jones ended double positive Today they’re back for more Me and my shares are on a bubble up and we’re never coming down An unbelievably booming economy, now! Come everyone gather round The end of the world is any time now Let us all join hands and say a prayer Heavenly Father, can you do that thing you do and lower interest rates? Some of the most impressive real estate is being developed near my house An inconceivably lucrative fortuity, wow! Come everyone gather round The end of the world is any time now So hold up both your hands It’s raining money Grab everything your back will let you carry

Show Me 05:50
Way to go Just keep nodding until Your head comes off Her stories are plausible And short You'd think that such conditions Would make me Form an opinion A shape upon a chair But I'm not really here Show me We don't need nothing Except for all there is To breathe and to be seen So take my hand And break my dreams What's this After falling You're supposed to take a hit? So cough up your coffee And laugh at the funny bits Then kiss her head goodnight Tomorrow's filled With sounds and thrills And flashing lights A cosmic sigh I never will be more aware that I'm not really there Show me we don't need nothing Except for all there is To breathe and to be seen So take my hand And break my dreams All the things we talk about but never do Show me we don't need nothing Except for all there is To breathe and to be seen so Show me we don't need nothing Except for all there is To breathe and to be seen So take my hand And take my head All and everything I have I'll be with you Anywhere Take my hand Take my hand

Garden gates we’re talking over Blades of grass are upright daggers Pilot speaks, announces solemnly: “We’ve just lost another wing” Then speed, altitude, local time, weather conditions Oh, I think my night is on a collision course with dawn Oh, somebody push a button that will stop the world I’m getting off All I wanna do is pretend we’re islands in the tub Baby, you can even hold me under Maybe we could roll the windows down and turn it up Play all the songs that you’ve ever loved See, everyone’s exactly where yesterday we left them, dear All expressionlessly dining in artificial lighting still All turn to me; They must think I’m their new friend But I’m already elsewhere in my head Please, somebody pull a lever that will stop the world I’m getting off All I wanna do is pretend we’re islands in the tub Baby, you can even hold me under Maybe you could roll the windows down and turn it up Play all the songs that you’ve ever loved We can talk about everything you want when I’m short of words Fly a kite in the evening You better believe it This time we’re gonna live What’s the use of looking up? Heaven’s just a tomb for rockets All the garden gates we’re talking over Blades of grass are upright daggers What’s the use of looking up? Heaven’s just a tomb for rockets All the garden gates we’re talking over Blades of grass are upright daggers
