lyrics

Part II

I need a pen that lends itself to good illustration
And a wind powered train that runs across the nation.

And when the train breaks down we'll pick it up in another town.

I need friend that lends itself to good conversation
and an eel eatin' heron as a pet in conservation

And when, the eels are all dead, they'll move on to squids instead

I need a coast for the most sincere of celebrations
Where the water's as calm as a fresh cut lawn's creation. Oh creation.

I need a meal that'll make me feel part of a family
And the meal is not complete without a sauce of cranberry

You gotta, take your time food for thought's not only for the mind

I need a love that I cannot shove aside in vanity
For more reasons than one i'll say it's for my sanity
You're not in the dark Holdin hands lightin' up that spark

Listen to through the cracks for the tracks of your train of thought
don't get caught up in what you have and haven't got,

Part III

Oh Honey, you gotta get out while you can.

I said well honey honey you gotta get out while you can.

No need to simplify it. Deny or categorize it.

Oh Honey you gotta get out while you can.

No need to simplify it. You're gonna know when you can't describe it.

Oh you get off your high horse and i'll get off my ass
