|
The candy planets cannot close your eyes |
|
They cannot hold you, rhinestone lullabies |
|
That cradle and croon babes in their beds |
|
They cannot hush the hornets in your head |
|
Moonchild, moonchild |
|
Like Billy Pilgrim unstuck in time |
|
Fiddle in your hand, climbing down the vine |
|
What cannot be owned must be condemned |
|
They think you've got something belonging to them |
|
Moonchild, high on high |
|
Moonchild, born to make your mother cry |
|
Moonchild, howling all night to the moonchild |
|
The sky is falling, have you had enough? |
|
Leave your bones to the dogs of love |
|
Take your place with the clowns and the saints |
|
Biting on the bridle beneath the greasepaint |
|
Moonchild, high on high |
|
Moonchild, born to make your mother cry |
|
Moonchild, howling all night to the moonchild... |
