A diamond necklace played the pawn
Hand in hand, sun-grown, the long walk
To a handsome man in the town
A blind-glass aristocracy
Back through the opera class
You see, appeared in the bedroom yard
Call the meeting room, it's got to go
Can't miss the town and brush the bedrock
Are you sleeping?
Hung velvet overtaking me
*** shanties in the dark
A chandelier awaking me
To a song dissolved in the dawn
The music holocaust-y bow
The music all is lost from now
To a fugitive trumpeter's swan
Coordinated through its domino
Can't miss the town and brush the bedrock
Can't miss the town and brush the bedrock
Are you sleeping, brother John?
Are you sleeping, brother John?
Dove-master towers, the hour was strike
The street, quicksilver moon
Carriage across the street


The fog to step, to lamplight cellar tune
The laughs come hard and all flang sun
The glass was raised to fire and rose
The fullness of the wine, the *** last toasting
While at Port-a-Dieu, Bordeaux
A joke of grief, hard heart and I
Beyond belief, a broken man
Too tough to cry
Surf's up, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Bored, a tidal wave
Come about hard and join the youth's song

The young and often spring you gave
I heard the word, wonderful thing
A children's song
Child, child, child, child
Child, child, child, child
A children's song
Have you listened as they play?
Their song is love
And the children know the way
As night falls
And night falls
And night falls
And night falls
And night falls
And night falls
And night falls
And night falls
And night falls
And night falls
