lyrics

A tiny remarkable man
said “I’m hooked again.
The race is predictable.
I just need to figure out what we do now.”

A tiny unusual child said
he didn’t know how people were happy.
Everyday things delighted the king.
Is it really as simple as that?

The story goes
that beautiful bits of time
dissolve back into the sea.
The story’s brief.
We don’t even notice life
dissolving into the tide.

A very inquisitive boy
said “You’re old” and went to dance on the rooftop,
ringing the bell and spinning himself into space.

We are carried away.
