Lyrics
You don't know but you've been told Oil is worth its blood in gold Emeralds too and orchids blue How about something new? Grooming in the garden hedging out a plan Dino topiaries Solipsistic clan Francesca's the name Your head's her game so don't feel ashamed to step out of frame She said FEE FI FO and FO FI FUM THEY MIGHT BE GIANT SERVICEMEN Looming in the parlor longing to be sad Millionaire Ted DiBiase Supernova dad Please bring her along as if she'd planned it but don't expect them to understand it She had to break for a bit Two work birthdays in a row inhaling tokens, H. Tubmans, and whatevs else, yo In case you're wondering which vestige of the moon is male It should be clear to even those who haven't heard that tale of Mr. Kaufman cavorting with the pink prism I'LL GIVE YOU ONE CLUE: IT AIN'T MY FACE Here it goes again Animate the ancient runes whistling classic Disney tunes I don't know but I've been told Solar reduces fumes In my soul when I can hear it Nothing compares with joyful spirit We can go Our hands in hands Traveling lasting lands Fuming in the mirror Sinister report Graceful Jabberwocky
