I----I pushed off the pier Infinity run cold And filled up my ears There’s the weapon you hold; There’s the thing that you hold it to And the thing you hold dear.
Oh the speed of a year It runs the wood dry And water unclear There’s the thing you hold high; There’s the thing that you hold it to And the thing you hold dear.
I will be an enemy to men seen in the light! Do you think it’s all right? Yes I think it’s all right! It’s all right!
If you make the waves The sun makes the rays The speed of the light Can be trusted to prey To prey on the fools That pushed off your pier The whirling of pools runs clear
Da-da-da-dum…
So I’ll be out till the shivering dies I said I’ll be out till the shivering dies It’s the reigning of the predatory nature of the sky And the raining sound it makes when it’s burning out your eyes It’s all right. IT IS ALL RIGHT!
It’s the speed of the light It’s the speed of a year It’s the weapon you hold, And the thing you hold dear. OH my dear, oh my dear It’s infinity’s time to shine all year If you make the waves The sun makes the rays The speed of the light Can be trusted to prey To prey on the fools That pushed off your pier The whirling of pools runs clear
Da-da-da-dum…
The rocking of boats and the making of mirrors The whirling of pools running clear.
Da-da-da-dum…
I heard them say, “put the weapon away”. It’s the thing you know and they’re taking it away I know But I’ll find a way I’ll find a way to let you tear the thing GO!
Bum….bum…ba-da-dum…
If you make the waves The sun makes the rays The speed of the light Can be trusted to prey To prey on the fools That pushed off your pier The whirling of pools runs clear
Da-da-da-dum…
The rocking of boats and the making of mirrors The whirling of pools running clear.
