๐ Lyrics
I'm going down to the valley
Find myself a mayfly
Set her on my shoulder
And head for the line
If you stay, make a sign, surely
And try not to answer questions
You may not be a champion
But you can sure try
I've got my five trade winds a-blowing
Three for the Virgin Mary
One goes to the scarab
The other stays by the fire
When he comes home tired and weary
To lay something on the table
He'll stay maybe for a weekend
And then he will fly
And the forty thousand people
Jam the streets and maybe more
And they're all of them, they're trying to stay alive
And the mayfly smiled a slow smile
Decided not to go
And they waved their flags and no one did arrive
And they waved their flags and no one did arrive
If you're down there, come and see me
I'm all wrapped up in paper
Haven't found what I'm looking for
So something's gotta break
When I wake up in the morning
Sun's high through my window
Hitch a ride on a blind man
But at least start it late
Find myself a mayfly
Set her on my shoulder
And head for the line
If you stay, make a sign, surely
And try not to answer questions
You may not be a champion
But you can sure try
I've got my five trade winds a-blowing
Three for the Virgin Mary
One goes to the scarab
The other stays by the fire
When he comes home tired and weary
To lay something on the table
He'll stay maybe for a weekend
And then he will fly
And the forty thousand people
Jam the streets and maybe more
And they're all of them, they're trying to stay alive
And the mayfly smiled a slow smile
Decided not to go
And they waved their flags and no one did arrive
And they waved their flags and no one did arrive
If you're down there, come and see me
I'm all wrapped up in paper
Haven't found what I'm looking for
So something's gotta break
When I wake up in the morning
Sun's high through my window
Hitch a ride on a blind man
But at least start it late
