this is a song about books - this is a song about chicken kiev - this is a song about a sweltering heat wave - this is a song about fear - this is a song about a pile of dust currently residing in a rubbish bin - this is a song about songs - this isn't a song
lyrics
You meet a mag-i-cal man
drink-ing from a jar in hand.
"Wor-ry not." he says to you
off-ers up a sip of juice.
"Pick-ling juice -
the heart of the fan-ta-sy!
Brine pre-serves the
mood of the dream-to-be!"
- tan-gy sweet
you wince from the taste of it -
"Taste of it,
TASTE OF IT!"
- Brineheart
Deep be-low the ci-ty streets,
he takes you to where he sleeps.
With a twin-kle in his eye
he sings songs about the sky.
"The sky is blue,
a wond'rous hue,
the clouds swim like
fish in a bay...
Be-neath this sea
of stars we see
a fa-thom-less o-cean of
blame."
A fathomless ocean of blame...
You're per-plexed and ask him why
his songs make you wish to die.
He just stares, his gaze as-kew,
blinks, once, twice, thrice, right at you.
Rea-ching for a sim-ple book
ne-stled in a co-zy nook,
he reads from this an-cient tome;
wis-dom for you to take home.
"Al-ways brush your teeth
af-ter ev-'ry meal!
Don't leave out the beef
where the dog can steal!
Re-mem-ber to look
when you cross the street -
cross the street,
CROSS THE STREET!"
- Brineheart
"Fu-gu can
be poi-son if ill-pre-pared!
Tax-i dri-vers
just want to steal your fare!
If you drink
too much wa-ter you will pee -
you will pee,
YOU WILL PEE!"
- Brineheart
"Mice will steal
your pants when you go to sleep!
Rocks go well
with a-ny dish con-tain-ing beets!
Were-wolves are
a-ller-gic to cock-a-tiels -
cock-a-tiels,
COCK-A-TIELS!"
- Brineheart
"Choc-'late eggs
can hatch in-to cabb-a-ges!
Chil-dren are just
rude lit-tle sa-va-ges!
Pick-le juice will..."
