She sang hymns out of tune
|
And carried a yellow balloon
|
She traded her love
|
For a Spanish doubloon
|
And talked to the people
|
The people who are
|
Now I have a clock on the wall
|
It keeps time and that isn't all
|
It tells me how long she's been gone
|
Gone to the people
|
The people who are
|
She lived in a sorcerer's room
|
And pounded the table
|
And brandished the broom
|
She turned ten thousand
|
When she touched the moon
|
And turned to the people
|
The people who are
|
Waaa waa waa
|
Rain came down and scattered away
|
The old antique caretaker's children that play
|
Early that morning she passed away
|
Passed to the people The people who are
|
She sang!
|
She sang hymns out of tune
|
And carried a yellow balloon
|
She traded her love for a Spanish doubloon
|
And talked to the people
|
The people who are
|
|
