Five Toes on the Hay Bale

from Waterbed by bellwire

/

lyrics

The town looked up to the sky.
Their living done, it was time to survive
and I could sympathize.

Tell my parents I went to Paris
to do a trick I don't show anyone.
I'll take my favorite self and shoot through the sea.
How grand would I be? How grand I would be.

I cried when my toe touched the bay.
"I could help if I decided to stay,"
but I went anyway.

It was worse than the days I'm certain
my time is better spent with animals.
I felt too cold to think, I turned and I found
sinking crystal figures, no sound
when they woke up underwater and drowned.
