An electric outlet
In my mind
Take the plug
Put it in
Crackling, it’s crackling
Electricity is flowing
Creative, imagine is flowing
Inspire and muse
Is all dripping out
Dripping, running, now soaking
Spilling out onto the earth
The colour is seeping
Into the ground
It’s red now, it’s so much better
Than it once was
Now the skies, they are yellow
The sun’s not even there no more
It’s rolling away, running away
Down the hill, the moon will follow
The clouds, like toadstools
Spot the ground, the trees
Purple leaves
Are falling, like raindrops
Sprinkling, on my face
In my hands, I catch
A seashell, it flew here
From the seaside, and oh
By the way, the sea’s dried up
It’s all gone now, it’s drained away
If ya want it, you’ll have to go
To the centre of the earth
Pick it up, bucket by bucket
Pour it back again
Sticky tape, pin the leaves up
Blow drier, float the clouds back
Little shell, toss it back
To its home
Cause if ya look, everything’s
Turning, changing back
And now a fossil is under my feet
A reminder, of what it
Once was like
Once a time ago
In my mind
Take the plug
Put it in
Crackling, it’s crackling
Electricity is flowing
Creative, imagine is flowing
Inspire and muse
Is all dripping out
Dripping, running, now soaking
Spilling out onto the earth
The colour is seeping
Into the ground
It’s red now, it’s so much better
Than it once was
Now the skies, they are yellow
The sun’s not even there no more
It’s rolling away, running away
Down the hill, the moon will follow
The clouds, like toadstools
Spot the ground, the trees
Purple leaves
Are falling, like raindrops
Sprinkling, on my face
In my hands, I catch
A seashell, it flew here
From the seaside, and oh
By the way, the sea’s dried up
It’s all gone now, it’s drained away
If ya want it, you’ll have to go
To the centre of the earth
Pick it up, bucket by bucket
Pour it back again
Sticky tape, pin the leaves up
Blow drier, float the clouds back
Little shell, toss it back
To its home
Cause if ya look, everything’s
Turning, changing back
And now a fossil is under my feet
A reminder, of what it
Once was like
Once a time ago
