Walls of the Universe - Guerilla Toss

I once knew a parrot who lived out of town

Who made a living learning about bird watching

He wore a hat suited for a blue parakeet

With a nest upon his head as he walked down the street

Polishing his marbles and petting his sheep, he said…

So with God on his shoulders and a branch for a pipe

And a yellow cockatail that was mostly white

There were rainbows tangled all up in his hair

He said «Hey, I never brush and the chicks don’t care

And so to the edge of space I go

But I stop halfway»

The walls of the universe are so very very very high

The walls of the universe are so very very very high

The walls of the universe are so very very very high

And just like that, yeah, the flip of a switch

The bird, he said «Hey, let’s get out of this place»

My third eye sat pretty so I gave it a bone

And we took a long walk out on the astral zone

He said «You know that thin line between each scene?

The crack you’ve been crossing from boring to obscene

Beyond the gray trees and the mental trapeze

Where the horses go clip-clop out on the place

And the dissonance leaves with a flap of a wing

And watching the birds is how you make a living

And so to the edge of space I go

But I stop halfway"

The walls of the universe are so very very very high

The walls of the universe are so very very very high

The walls of the universe are so very very very thin

The walls of the universe are beginning where the end has been

The walls of the universe are so very very very high

The walls of the universe are so very very very thick

The walls of the universe are so very very very thin

The walls of the universe are beginning where the end has been

The walls of the universe are so very very very high

The walls of the universe are so very very very thin

The walls of the universe are so very very high
