The World makes me cry But my tears are not public Rivers... They often go unseen And make no difference To the World...

Who holds the keys to all the locks? Who winds the springs on all the clocks? Who puts the rings in all the bells? Who spells the words that cast the spells? Who knows the way through all our brains? Who twists the rope and links the chains? Effajeniah Penelope You've been doing things you don't want your mother to see You better remember what your momma said She's got eyes in the back of her head Who blows the horns on Satan's head? Who puts the holes in whole wheat bread? Who pulls the strings that make us dance? Who puts the ants down in our pants? Effajeniah Penelope You've been doing things you don't want your mother to see You better remember what your momma said She's got eyes in the back of her head

Half Passed 04:48
This is no way to end But a good place to start There’s a cloud in the sky And it’s shaped like a heart You don’t know where you’re going Until you know where you’ve been Till the years start showing Through the lines on your skin No mistakes for Heaven sakes you're Drawing lines in the Sands of time Half past eight You're sitting on the Hands of fate Half past ten You missed it again Half past nine You're sitting on the Hands of time Half past four You chose the wrong door There's a cloud in your heart And it's shaped like the sky The world's spinning round In the tear in your eye What’s the price of success? A pound or an ounce? Don’t mind the weight It's the volume that counts Cherubim and Seraphim and Little lambs eat Ivy If you focus on one The others are blurred The seeds of your fruit Should be seen but not heard There's a cloud in the sky But it's only pretend This is no way to start But a good place to end The painted stork Strikes the tuning fork in the Waning moon with a Runcible spoon

The World makes me cry But my tears are not public Rivers... They often go unseen And make no difference To the World... ...But sometimes I make the World cry Tears well up in the eyes of mountains Turning dry hollows into brimming pools Trickling through slender lashes of grass They moisten the dimpled cheeks of the hills They slide between the bony features of the landscape Swelling the fleshy earth But the World cries too much It overwhelms me with it's emotional rivers When I observe it's watery face My vision is distorted
