Astronomy

5 5 -6 -6 -6 -6 6 -4
The clock strikes twelve, the moondrops burst

-5 -5 5 -4 4 -4 5 5
Out at you from their hiding place

5 5-6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 6 -4
Like acid and oil on a madman’s face

4 -5 -5 5 4 -4 5 5
His reason tends to fly away

-5 5 -5 5 -5 4 4
Like lesser birds on four winds

5 5 -5 5 -4 5
Like silver scrapes in May

5 5 -6 -6 -6 -6 6 -4
And now the sand’s become a crust

-5 -5 5 4 -4 5 5
Most of you have gone away

5 5 -6 -6 -6 -6 6 -4
Come Susie dear, let’s take a walk

-5 -5 5 4-4 5 5
Just out there upon the beach

5 5 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 6
I know you’ll soon be married

-4 4 -5 -5 5 4 -4 5 5
And you’ll want to know where winds come from

-5 -5 5 -5 5 -5 4
But it’s never said at all

-5 5 5 -5 5 -4 5
On the map that Carrie reads

5 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 6 -4
Behind the clock back there you know

-5 -5 5 4 -4
At the Four Winds Bar

-5 5 5 5
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

-6 -6 -6 -7 -6 -6 -6
Four winds at the Four Winds Bar

-7 -7 -6 7 -6 -6 -6
Two doors locked and windows barred

-6 -6 -6 7 -6 -6 -6
One door left to take you in

-6 -7 -7 -7 7 -6 -6 -6
The other one just mirrors it

5 5 5 5
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

5 -6 -6 -6 7 -6 -6 -6
In Hellish glare and inference

-6 -7-7 -7 7 -6 -6 -6
The other one’s a duplicate

-6 -6 -6 -6 7-6-6 -6
The Queenly flux, eternal light

-7 -7 -7 7 -6 -6 -6
Or the light that never warms

-7 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 76 -6
Yes the light that never, never warms

-6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6
Or the light that never

6 -5 6
Never warms

6 -5 6
Never warms

6 -5 6 5
Never warms

5 5 -6 -6 -6 -6 6 -4
The clock strikes twelve and moondrops burst

-5 -5 5 -4 4 -4 5 5
Out at you from their hiding place

5 5 -6 -6 -6 -6 6 -4
Miss Carrie nurse and Susie dear

4 -5 -5 5 4 -4 5 5
Would find themselves at Four Winds Bar

-5 -5 5-5 -5 4 4 4
It’s the nexus of the crisis

-5 5 5-5-5 -4 5
And the origin of storms

5 -6 -6 -6 -6 6 -4
Just the place to hopelessly

-5 -5 -5 5 4 4 -4 5
Encounter time and then came me

-5 5 5 5
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

-6 -6 -6 -7 -7 -6
Call me Desdinova

-7 6 6 -6
Eternal light

-6 -6 -6 -6 -7 -6
These gravely digs of mine

-6 -7 -7 -7 -6 7
Will surely prove a sight

-6 -6 -6 -6 -7 -6
And don’t forget my dog

-7 -7 -7 6 -6
Fixed and consequent

-6 -6- 6 -6 -6 -6
Astronomy…a star (x2)
