A dark angel parachutes down into an abandoned town
he says: oh, i've been looking for a certain white clown
doesn't look like you're it
but you're the only one around
so i guess you'll have to do, he says
so anyway...how are you doin'?
i say, actually, i can't stand all the new machines
it's supposed to be all brand new but it just looks the same"
he says: oh, it looks like you're bored. so try this he says to me:
why don't you get yourself an old beret
and why don't you find an old cafe?
and sit at a time and write something new
that's never been heard before
or write your own manifesto.
that would do
just make sure you use a pencil
so you can always get it...you know...right
look at all the things i've bought
i can't believe what they cost
just a lot of plastic and numbers on my credit card
i'm feeling kind of lost
the world that used to seem so small
i could wrap my arms around it
now it seems so big.
and he said: oh
from your pictures i guessed that you were tall
but actually...i gotta go now
it's a small world full of light
it's a small world full of light
but i wouldn't want to have to paint it
