|
When the world was travelling faster and faster |
|
Two colors became just a blur |
|
And the buildings were falling, plaster from plaster |
|
'Til things just weren't what they were |
|
What could save mankind from man? |
|
When the blind the blind overran |
|
From this scene of confused devastation |
|
Came the great spontaneous apple creation |
|
And a speck in the sky grew to a cloud |
|
And fishes flew and laughed aloud |
|
And hamsters grew wings and flew on the doors |
|
And rich wine was sweated from every man's pores |
|
And 3,000 people ate one strawberry |
|
And the cloud grew green and pushed out a stalk |
|
And the chairs grew suede boots and started to walk |
|
And the strong silent ones began to talk |
|
And three million people told butter from stork |
|
And the cloud grew greener and greener and harder |
|
'Til it reminded all those there of something from the larder |
|
And suddenly it was there and in each and every land |
|
Each man, beast, and creature had an apple in his hand |
|
And from that day came a new recreation |
|
The great spontaneous apple creation! |
|
What could save mankind from man? |
|
When the blind the blind overran |
|
From this scene of confused devastation |
|
Came the great spontaneous apple creation |
|
(apple creation) |
