Tidal Wave - The Apples in stereo, Robert Schneider

A foot in the street and a foot in the gutter

That’s one foot in the morning rain

Just round the corner, a hole full of water

And hot dog, it’s a holiday

Splish splash in a pool of puddle

Don’t trip up on a tidal wave

You’ll crash in a murky muddle

Then you’ll know how it feels

To know you’re not real

Went for a walk and I climbed up a tower

It seemed like a thousand years

'til I reached the top, oh, and I picked a flower

That grew through the stratosphere

Drop down to a cloud or jetstream

Don’t trip up on a weathervane

You’ll drown in a world or wet dream

Then you’ll know how it feels

To know you’re not real

I wrote a letter and I gave it to Jenny

I hoped for some return

Next time I saw her she gave me a penny

Wrapped up in a gummy worm

Run round in a field or meadow

Don’t trip up on a sugarcane

Fall down in a lazy shadow

Then you’ll know how it feels

To know you’re not real
