Waltz
Oh you're persuasive
But peace is evasive
Even love is invasive
Tides drown but they rise
Lifting up all the clutter
Diamonds swept in the gutter
The mockingjay stutters
He don't know what he's seen
Oh what a scene
Flood rush through the screen
Swim above waters teem
Or get swept underneath
Rock of the ages
Of dummies and sages
I keep turning the pages
But I don't know a thing
Lift me up when I'm lonely
And the bird sings if only
The bark on the tree
Was as soft as the skies
Oh what a prize
Just to see with your eyes
Swim above waters rise
Oh with sex underneath
Oh what a scene
Flood rush through the screen
Oh what a scene
Animal and machine
Swim above waters teem
Or get swept underneath
But peace is evasive
Even love is invasive
Tides drown but they rise
Lifting up all the clutter
Diamonds swept in the gutter
The mockingjay stutters
He don't know what he's seen
Oh what a scene
Flood rush through the screen
Swim above waters teem
Or get swept underneath
Rock of the ages
Of dummies and sages
I keep turning the pages
But I don't know a thing
Lift me up when I'm lonely
And the bird sings if only
The bark on the tree
Was as soft as the skies
Oh what a prize
Just to see with your eyes
Swim above waters rise
Oh with sex underneath
Oh what a scene
Flood rush through the screen
Oh what a scene
Animal and machine
Swim above waters teem
Or get swept underneath
