I hear music in colors I see it in the air

And all the sisters and brothers I see them there

When all the lights go out all over town

And all the pretty fireworks fall down

I'm waiting for a wake up call I don't try to sleep

I watch fluorescent second hand creep.

You know I love another does it bother you?

Do you think that one love is good enough for two?

The pure pain of jealousy a piercing fear

Passed right through her soul like a spear

We all have deeply hidden chords that someone else must strike

To hear the very ringing of the psyche.

I hear you split up with your boyfriend

And he seemed unconcerned

Love's a fickle fortune babe

Every penny must be earned

We're astronauts we're angels but we're never coming down

For all the gods who've passed us by have drowned

The boogaloo of modern verse is dancing in her mind

Still very much the nervous kind.

Do you like this kind of party I don't know why I came

They take winning so seriously but never play the game

I can smell the powder of your make up, your perfume

Sense you when you're in another room

Are they still talking about furniture

'Bout one or other chair

I can only see you sitting there.
