Wonderland - The Watch

Bright lights and street signs

Wonderland

And the cash tills pray

Shooting fish you are

Shot downs from the stars

Bargaining with good buys

Time not mine

Preacher man preach

Drowning men you are

Drowning at the bar

Chain reaction on the razor’s edge

Sugar babes and dirty fairy cakes

So much sweatness

Merry gentleman

Overflowing

(in a world full of hate)

But let’s party

Anyway

Spheres of gold, silver stars

So familiar

From year to year

Hear me shoppers

I can tell you

Spinning wheels in motion

Helping me to feel

There’s a promise I can keep for you

I could sell you

That dream so cool

This empty blue sphere

Falls through time

And the faithful pay

Shooting stars through space

Shot down from on high

Big fat hole in the sky

Hurtling grace

Drown out the pain

So familiar

So spectacular

Chain reaction o the razor’s edge

Sugar babes and dirty fairy cakes

So much sweatness

Merry gentleman

Overflowing

(in a world full of hate)

Land of planty

(we could do with less)

But let’s party

Anyway

You’ve heard this before

So familiar

From year to year

Stated mildly

To say the least

Empty spheres

Spinning world

Help us to see

That great big hole inside me

The stuff we’ll need

The void we feel

The misguided few

An unlikely crew

As the night comes down

Falling to save

Even you

And so it goes
