The World Is Alive - Ezra Furman, The Harpoons

There is life on this planet and I know because I’ve seen it

It is wading in the slimiest of Saturday nights

There’s a white haunted moon hanging over the lagoon

It was made for a moment just such as this

There is love in the eyes of the birds and bees

There are plastic bags and suburban trees

Keep your eyes open all the time and I think you’ll find

There’s no place to hide and the world is alive

There are sailors on the ocean little kids with crazy notions

And their head’s are gonna spin like a tornado

There’s a bible by the TV and the curtain’s blowing freely

In this hotel room make my heart do flips

There’s a bush that burns but is not consumed

There’s a glass of milk in an empty room

There’s a song at the heart of it all and we all try hard

Just to write it down but you can’t write it down

Whew!
