Verse 1
How can I fly with these old dogged wings
While the magpie sings some shiny song.
Old corn-face row of teeth she says sweetly to me
In the elevator
Everything seems like a dream, Life's a scream
Verse 2
Here come old kerosene hat with his earflaps waxed
A 'courting his girl
Come clattering in here on your old cloven skates
With the devilish spoon
Everything seems like a dream, and life's a scream, when you're submarine.
