lyrics

A long time ago, one night I had a dream
Which made me believe the world
Was not quite what it seems
A spectre appeared to me
With wings of pale white
And I can still remember
What it said to me that night

It said:
Ignorance is wickedness
And wickedness is bad
And always feel grateful
For the little things you had
And always call your mother
But never call your dad
And don’t forget
That one man’s pet
Is one man’s slave
And one man’s brother

Then it floated away
With nothing more to say
And I’ll never forget
All the things that it said
With a flap of feathery wings
And a wink from all three eyes
It left me to think of these things
And fluttered into the sky

It said:
Heaven is a library
But ignorance is bliss
And always feel open
To the comfort of death’s kiss
And friends will never leave you
If you keep them in a box
And when you climb the mountain
Never watch for falling rocks

Then it slithered away
With nothing more to say
And I’ll never forget
All the things that it said
With a flap of leathery wings
And a wave of a slimy claw
It left me to think of these things
And dragged itself through the door
