Wonderful World Of The Wondermints

(n. walusko)



Came the day i saw her, walking on the water,

And i was sinking in the sand.

And i thought i caught her,

But she was a little out of hand.

She's in a citadel that she built on her own.

She let her hair down for me.

Wish i'd keep her only locked away just for me,

But she's already doing time.

She's a concrete flower,

Squeezing in the hour 'til you're gone.

You're in a citadel that you built on your own.

Just let your hair down for me.

Could be a million reasons,

But you found just one - just one.

Fleur-de-lis frozen lily

Fleur-de-lis frozen lily

Silent sands are pouring, patiently ignoring

The minutes sliding into years

From the time i lost her,

Through the door of summer where she remains...

Forever out there

Fleur-de-lis frozen lily

Forever out there

Fleur-de-lis frozen lily

Fleur-de-lis

Forever out there

(n.walusko)



When i saw you in a

Mirror humming like a

Jet plane coming overhead

A rooftop faraway at night

Coming coming coming bright

Like a swirly eye-shape on

A simulated wood-grain god

In a dazzling form of flames

Recurring dream where i saw you

And nothing happens but i do

See the sun

In your heart

Feel the shine

Above

And if she laughs with happy

Little bubble colors

Bursting silent like a star

Shut your eyes and some things change

Skeletons will rearrange

See the sun

In your heart

Feel the shine

Above

Shine. . .

Who is the girl by the railway station lost-and-found?

Her warm coat, eiderdown.

Her eyes are cloaked in auburn combed brown.

Tracy hide go seek within my mind.

Outside, the world seems so unkind. she hides.

Not far away from the schoolyard, carved an elegy.

'til then, you're here with me.

The endless cry of an aching melody.

Tracy hide go seek within my mind.

Outside, the world seems so unkind. she hides.

I feel her holding back the tears of time,

Haunting me like a nursery rhyme.

Who is the girl with the paintbox -

Canvas the sad clouded skies -

Opens her eyes to find me here -

To blind the fears and the lies.

Alone, she's my one and only truth.

Tracy hide go seek within my mind.

Outside, the world seems so unkind. she hides.

(repeat)

Once again they played the pawn.

Seems the overtime's well-spent.

Sacrifice your sunshine for the rent.

Never had the guts to question why.

Makes you want to shrivel up and die.

So every time the world's a-stutter,

Libbyland's a place you can call your own.

And if you find your road is cluttered,

Close your eyes and laugh yourself all the way home.

It's funny where their interests lie -

In god and platinum we trust,

'til you feel just like a speck of dust.

Rumor has your title up for sale,

And if you must succeed, your friends must fail.

So every time the world's a-stutter,

Libbyland's a place you can call your own.

And if you find your road is cluttered,

Close your eyes and laugh yourself all the way home.

You're in the eye of the psyclone,

Where foolish angels fear to go.

They'd never know that your revolver was set to unload.

Explode!

Slip into another world...

It's a place you can call your own.

And if you find the world's a gutter,

Close your eyes and laugh yourself all the way home.

The leprechaun's your ticket-taker,

Libbyland's a place you can call your own.

So say goodnight, you mischief-makers -

Got a letter - maybe better that i get a piece of you instead.

All the chatter doesn't matter when you realize it wasn't read.

Can't be nothing when it's something that will get

Attention anyhow,

Like a doggy in the window with his head a-going up

And down.

Sister suzie with an uzi that eventually got her fame.

Next door neighbors doing favors for a pipe dream in

The media drain.

"she was always such a quiet...such a quiet neighbor

Of a girl."

But no one asked her what it's like to be a stranger in a

Stranger world.

Have a vision in collision with the vehicles you had to rent.

Loud as honey dripping money for ideas in retirement.

Little brother watching big brother watching for a

Thought disease.

And no one caught 'em picking petals in the minds

Of psychodaisies.

Stop the world, stop the world, i'm a global

Village idiot.

As it turns, as it turns out to be the biggest job

I forget

Tone of silence rings the violence like a halo resting

On the horns.

Make the angels so pathetic with their cybernetic

Crown of thorns.

And i won't let you cry again.

No, i won't let you cry to make me want you.

You know you know what all i've been through,

So now what else do you want me to do?

And i won't let you cry again.

I won't let you cry.

Thought twice on another's advice that nothing

Could come from you.

Thought twice that it would have been nice to see you.

Thought back but i couldn't keep track of everything you do.

Thought back as a matter of fact, but i feel you stalking.

Another day goes by, another crime.

You'd have your way again.

And you've nothing to say - that's the way it will be.

You think you're as far as you can see,

But i think that you'll be there without me.

You'd have your way again.

You'd have your way.

Thought twice on another's advice that nothing

Could come from you.

Thought twice that it might've been nice to see you.

Thought back but i couldn't keep track of everything you do.

Thought back as a matter of fact, but i feel you...

Another day goes by, another crime.

And there's no alibi to waste my time.

Another day goes by, and i could feel you near

And i'll never let you do me like you did before.
