Silly Sun

Silly Sun, don't you drown again
You went overboard last night
A pink shrimp clenched between your lips
Your silver dress torn, golden makeup worn

Raised your glass, tipped your crown
As you went down

Little Sun, the night has come on
Big shiny moon says he sees you
Laughing with seahorse princes
Diamond tears of happiness

Up above, while we sleep
There comes a rumble from the deep

Tell us, is this the end?
Tell us where you've gone
Tell us, is this the end?
Where have you gone?

Pretty sun in pale blue stockings
Floating on a seaweed bed
Velvet lips so cold, so lifeless
We throw a rope to pull you in

Up above, while we weep
There comes a rumble from the deep

Tell us, is this the end?
Tell us where you've gone
Tell us, is this the end?
Where have you gone?

Silly Sun, we thought we lost you
A casualty of love
That day could have been your final symphony
But here you come again
On the horizon
