Seized in perfect grace
Caught in an almost perfect pose
Horses, as they race
Horses, as they race
Earth moves swiftly under foot
Beauty in motion
Beauty in motion
She was a story book horse
She was Black Beauty
She was Black Beauty
Riot under foot, aware
The day is fleeting
The day is fleeting
The night goes so quickly too
Where has the time gone?
Where has the time gone
The runaway child looks back
Impatient, longing
Impatient, longing
Thirst indeed is torture
Buy me a pint
Buy me a pint
It well might loosen my tongue
And I'll spill the beans
And I'll spill the beans
Everything I ever learned about
The cat will scream
The cat will scream, what
Happened to the 5-7-5
Cool cadence, my friends
Cool. Cadence, my friends,
means finding your inner beat,
and allowing it.
And allowing it
To break the rules of the game
And we allow it
And we allow it,
by not noticing other
discrepancies here.
Discrepancies here
Oh, I am anal, I know
But what can I do
But what can I do?
Five hundred pound gorilla
Sleeps where it wants to.
Sleeps where it wants to ...
What does huge canary say?
Here kitty, kitty!
Here Kitty, Kitty
Capture me in endless flight
Pluck my plumage clean
Pluck my plumage clean
And we'll both be bound to earth
Birds of no feather
Birds of no feather
Have been plucked with no mercy
Hey, what's for dinner?
Hey, what's for dinner
is not a question to ask
a harried mother.
