Trudging through the morning
And the tramp with the trampoline under his arm
Shifts past your whiskers
So stark is the charm, but the barking alarm
Weighs coiled 'til the corner is turned

And the bicycle wheels all struggle to move round
In your muddy mind blatantly caked
And unwilling to wind uncooperative time

Trailing wrapped in a gasp

All the pretty visitors came and waved their arms and cast
The shadow of a snake pit on the wall
All the pretty visitors came and waved their arms and cast
The shadow of a snake pit on the wall
