At the top of morning came the silver dangling rain
In every droplet Eucalyptus showed its face
A half-sunned hallway shot the rose and then retired
The running droplets soaked the reds and then expired
Today fantasy is on the range and the city's riding
Coralling, conniving
Today I'm looking for the thing that's raw
It's a chimps brawl
Like a stunt man I'm gonna take a fall
If all I needed was a bed and edibles
Not something bigger
Like Eucalyptus fading up and fading out
Something quiet
On another shore there's a little boy in a boat tonight
He says and if it's above me
I will kneel devoutly if it guides me
Guide me
If it guides me
Guide me
And if it's below me I'll caress it tenderly
Are we thriving?
We're thriving
Today Monterey's so far away I can hear it dying
Hippies are crying
Today Halloween can make me change
But my skin's designed in
Echoes of past highs
