The House At Pooneil Corners


You and me, we keep walking around and we see
All the bullshit around us
You try and keep your mind on what's going down
Cant help but see the rhinoceros around us

Then you wonder what you can be
And you do what you can to get far and high
And you know I'm still gonna need you around
And you know I'm still gonna need you around

You say its healing, but nobody's feeling it
Somebody's dealing, somebody's stealing
And you say you don't see and you don't
You say you wont know and you wont, when it comes

Everything someday will be gone except silence
The earth will be quiet again
Seas from clouds will wash off the ashes of violence
Left as the memory of men
There will be no survivors, my friend

Suddenly everyone will look surprised
Stars spinning wheels in the skies
Sun is scrambled in their eyes
And circles like a vulture

Someone stood at the window and cried one tear
I thought that would stop the war, but someone is killing me
That's the last time I do think anymore
Jelly and juice and bubbles bubbles on the floor

Castles on cliffs vanished
Just like heaps rubbish
Seen from the stars hour upon hour
As splinters, dust, and black flowers

From here to heaven is a scar
Dead center, deep as death
All the idiots have left
The idiots have left

Cows are almost cooing
Turtle doves are mooing
Which is why a Pooh is poohing
In the sun
Sun
