Missing
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well I couldn't help smiling
As wide as a cityscape
Teeth like skyscrapers in a lake
All these things that I'm missing
Oh you've got them in spades
All these things that I'm lacking
Oh you more than make up for them
We've seen the stars burning
Fizzle, popping and dying
Horse power is a small thing
I wouldn't bet on it surviving
Suddenly the sea is blond
And the sky pecks its cheek
Where the sun sticks out
And all the craziest inventions start to speak
Can you hear them?
See them sucking and spinning
There's a message coming in
Start walking along the line
To the centre of town
Where the mayor in his nightgown
Is looking down
