Stella Matter, light is failing, making such a fool of thee,
|
when you'd love to be someone... This is the time, I've set aside.
|
From selling old rope, and tellingbad jokes, and cul de sac pride.
|
I've learnt today, while falling apart, the most eloquent way,
|
to speak or to pray, is straight from the heart.
|
Oh but to shine like Joan of Arc, you must be prepared to burn.
|
Take two kinds of look, and one wedding day, now isn't it clear,
|
there's nothing they'll hear, that you'd want to say.
|
Forget the style and choose from twelve notes,
|
in itself it's ajoy, wether it soothes or annoys,
|
a song starts in the throat.
|
And if you've no new clothes to wear,
|
then simply wash and com you hair.
|
And little green Isaac, you're gonna walk backwards through the room,
|
does that mean I won't see you?
|
It means you're gonna walk backwards through the room.
|
And little green Isaac, I hear you're still wet behind the ears,
|
Isaacs a soft name, it sounds like a pockeful of rain.
|
Well up that stairway he rose, and down that stairway he goes.
