lyrics

Tonight all my friends look like Beatles
The fog machine wards off all evil
I can feel you standing right next to me
You hand me the egg that no one can see
And the band warms up

Tonight all the pigeons are famous
They want only to entertain us
I can see the eggshell starting to crack
When the light comes out it won’t go back
And the band plays that song
we haven’t heard in so long

I was facing the room with one earplug
My faith was asleep like a dog on the rug
You were true
but I thought you were a symbol
I was high
when I found out it was simple

Tonight the moonlight throws off our saddles
I wear your glasses and we share an apple
The people on the porch all do agree
There must be an egg that no one can see
And the mic feeds back

Tonight all the wind chimes are playing
The pedestrian bridges are swaying
Water jumps the banks of the stream
I can see that the hills will soon be green
And the band loads out
leaving no doubt

I was facing the room with one earplug
My faith was asleep like a dog on the rug
You were true
but I thought you were a symbol
I was high
when I found out it was simple

And slowly
the green grass starts to grow
