lyrics

Kicking stones with Ferragamo
Howling down anntenae brick
And catching deer-eyed leers from all shapes and sizes
The clothes on his back become him as he puts the book down the boar's throat
Just the bill please, just the bill please

One cell, to another
Two makes four
Fore makes birdy
Two cells
Four, another
How bright that sun is

Trilobite become mineralised
Footprints almost twice the size
Howling coppers fly
Iron out that tie
Next stop is central station

White dust blown around by aircon
Make a yardbird dance with a tutu
His friends don't like him
Getting down with tyrannosaurus till we're told not to, not to, not to

Watch that moon, watch it rise
Watch that moon, watch it rise
Watch that moon, watch it rise
Watch that moon, watch it rise

Two cells to another
Two makes four
Fore makes birdy
How small, how quaint
How bright that sun is
