Nine Whole Lives |
| I think I’m gonna go down |
| to the land of perpetual twilight |
| wherewhere bags of weird junkstands |
| howling at the street lamps |
| And fun house mirrors pose |
| And shop windows and statues come to life |
| And gargoyles dance |
| I think I’m gonna go down to where the street sweeps are saints |
| Where dog eats dog and the rats are winning the race |
| I think I’m gonna go down and watch the people chase their lives |
| And life chase it’s tail with death close behind |
| I can’t sit still |
| Pacing the window sill |
| Of curiosity |
| Nine whole lives ahead of me |
| Nine whole lives to do as I please |
| I can’t sit still |
| It’s the fun, it’s the thrill |
| Of possibility |
| Nine whole lives ahead of me |
| Nine whole lives to do as I please |
| I think I’m gonna go down |
| Then I’ll go down even further |
| Where sunlight has to be bottled, labeled, taxed, and imported. |
| There’s laughter spilling out of an inconspicuous gutter |
| It makes you stop to think |
| It makes you kind of wonder |
| Just what goes on when you’re looking the other way |
| What’s outside of the words that we link. |
| Just what goes on behind closed doors. |
| What invisible wonders as re under your nose |
| I can’t sit still |
| Pacing the window sill |
| Of curiosity |
| Nine whole lives ahead of me |
| Nine whole lives to do as I please |
| I can’t sit still |
| It’s the fun, it’s the thrill |
| Of possibility/ |
| Nine whole lives ahead of me |
| Nine whole lives to do as I please |
| Nine whole live ahead of me |
| Nine whole lives to do as I please |
| Nine whole lives ahead of me |
| Nine whole lives to do as I please |
| Nine whole lives ahead of me |
| Nine whole lives to do as I please |
