Too much damage there
What with all the pipes bursting
And smoke in the air

And smoke in the air
gets the dogs' noses twitching
in happy rhythms.

In happy rhythms,
The dancers swirl and cluster
In beat with a tune.

In beat with a tune
The crowd stood and waved their arms
As strobe lights swirled above

As strobe lights swirled above,
the concert-goers swayed to
the music in time.

The music in time
The dancers all in a line
The curtain goes up

The curtain goes up,
And pale lights shine on those who
Suffer a sea change.

Suffer a sea change
When you fly to Australia
The jet lag kills you

The jet lag kills you
If you don't sleep it off well.
Get to the hotel.

Get to the hotel
The beds are comfortable
The night is yet young

The night is yet young;
I know because I heard some
Bairns shout on the moon

Bairns shout, "On the moon
with you, you dirty bugger."
Stealing candy stinks.

Stealing candy stinks,
As it benefits no one.
Think of your poor teeth.

Think of your poor teeth
before you bite into that!
Your dentist loves you.

Your dentist loves you!
Didn't you notice the way
He touched your molars?

Did he touch your canines too?

Laughing !

Romancing the teeth,
the tooth fairy lovingly
cares for each one.

Cares for each one
Tragedy are often low
If they're far away.

If they're far away,
does that make them any less
tragic? Human nature...

Tragic human nature
Shows itself to us too much.
Give a chance to peace.
