Dive into yesterday, dive into yesterday
Dive into yesterday Now since his disappearance through the smoke rings of our time While the plaster jester is speaking out of tune In moonlight swimming madness deep within Aladdin's cave But with good old diamonds dancing, we can all smile too soon Oh swing and sway, the petals say Turn inside and out and please Dive into yesterday, dive into yesterday Dive into yesterday Kaleidoscopic tambourines are tickling your ears While the tiny goldfish all swim amongst the air The Mardi Gras at midnight, the songs tumbling in sound While Sh-Sh-Shakespeare floats with wild roses in his head Oh, swing and sway, the patterns say Time sign out and please Relax your eyes, for after all We can but share these minutes Battalions in navy blue are bursting beige balloons The water pistols are all filled with lemonade The jester and the goldfish have joined minds above the moon Oh, please kiss the flowers and you too will be safe Oh, swing and sway, the patterns say Time sign out and please Dive into yesterday, dive into yesterday Dive into yesterday, oh |

Bursts of white cotton passing the window
Everyone talking, oh, so very low And Captain Simpson seems to be in a daze One minute high, the next minute low Nobody knows where we are Nobody knows where we are Cigarettes burning faster and faster Everyone talking about the everafter And Captain Simpson seems to be in a daze One minute high, the next minute low Nobody knows where we are Nobody knows where we are Nobody will ever know why Nobody will ever know why Visions of childhood rush past my eyes In seat number 30 somebody cries And Captain Simpson seems to be in a daze One minute high, the next minute low Nobody knows where we are Nobody knows where we are Nobody knows where we are Nobody knows where we are Nobody knows where we are Nobody knows where we are Nobody knows where we are |

Mountainous pictures of coloured scenes appear upon my face
And the joss stick smoke of sense dissolves, forever in its place The shadowy friends that line the walls all dream while laying down While the window tapping silhouette in rain begins to drown In the room of percussion The discussion slides as you enter through the door And the one armed bandit Laughs aloud and disappears once more Foolish thoughts of ecstasy are dead but without too much concern In the heart, my hopes by millions lay twisted as they burn The crooked faces of clocks appear and die in nightmare dreams While juggling music surrounds us both and turns our thoughts to screams In the room of percussion The discussion slides as you enter through the door And the one armed bandit Laughs aloud and disappears once more My God, the spiders are everywhere! With ruby wine and our tangled nerves, our mouths flap in despair And with tumbled words of poetry, we try and prove we care But the glow-worm light of creativeness moves out into the rain And the joss stick dies and disappears, its scent alone remains In the room of percussion The discussion slides as you enter through the door And the one armed bandit Laughs aloud and disappears once more In the room of percussion The discussion slides as you enter through the door And the one armed bandit Laughs aloud and disappears once more My God, the spiders are everywhere! |

Braces gleaming on the beach
Northern accents, funny speech People call each other "each" And the telly's just out of reach And Johnny's swimming expertly in a white-capped breaker Oh holidaymaker, liberty taker Nature forsaker, oh holidaymaker Red face roasting in the sun Curvy girls for everyone Radio gang here they come Spoiling everybody's fun And Johnny's swimming expertly in a white-capped breaker Oh holidaymaker, liberty taker Nature forsaker, oh holidaymaker The white surf is breaking softly on the sand Where the seagulls cry for the bread that's in your hand But you don't understand for why they cry You're all holiday men with no sunshine in your eye - why? Smiling queens walk to and fro A middle-aged romeo Tries but without seeds to sow Lucky his wife does not know And Johnny's drowning desperately in a white-capped breaker Oh, holidaymaker, liberty taker Nature forsaker, oh holidaymaker |

The early morning castle stirred,
The King of the forest stared vacantly, Toward the east. His bloodshot eyes caught no reasoning, A lazy fly settled on his suit of velvet, And the king cursed the creation. Like an unwanted shadow, The Queen of conscience entered the already broken morning, She spoke, "Eat my master". The king moved to a coffin corner, Where another lazy fly contemplated the dust of time. "Bring me a kingdom and I will eat," his voice disturbed the dust and the fly. "I am without power to bring you power," The Queen sighed like an autumn breeze. "Then I will not eat." The King moved to his guilty throne, And seated himself amongst his ancestors. "My King, if you want a kingdom and power, If you want money and love, if you want respect and admiration, then you must go out, and take it." The King stared vacantly to the east, And a dozen flies waiting in the dust stared back, "I am the King, it is not my part to capture and claim, It is my people's duty." The Queen cried and the little crystal tears tickled her cheeks. She brushed them away angrily, "You have no people, and while you remain the ghost of the past, you will never have people or a kingdom," She ran from the pathetic chamber. A fly left with her. The king breathed and thought deeply, "I will have people," he said nervously to his conscience, "I will have people." The King of the forest never rose again from his guilty throne, And the dust and the lazy flies lived on him, And the King lived on his dreams, And died on them. |

A million white flowers in a field in the sky
Seemed to spell out a greeting as the children flew by A guard in a chariot of silver and gold Gave the children all tickets, then the story he told Of a time in the future that was sunshine and flowers And the children grew sleepy in the sky's white towers They dreamed of the story that the guard had displayed They saw all the wonders, tiny minds were amazed They saw candy forests and dragons that breathed fire On all that was evil in the misty mire They came to the village where the turtles in caves Made pies for the people and the lemonade The people lived out by the sea and each day The seagulls would wake them as they passed on their way The people were kindly, they would sing to the sky And each bright new morning, the sun shone from their eyes The children passed over and all the people could see As they dived from the sky to the treacle sea They bathed on the white sand, minutes turned into hours And the children all giggled and gave each other flowers The King from his castle came down to the sea And he spoke to the children so patiently He gave them small presents and bid them farewell And the children unwrapped them, tiny silver bells Their tinkling floated across the island with ease And it came back toward them on the perfume breeze They smiled at the tinkling, they gazed at the sun And they smiled at each other, pretty little ones A beautiful white horse came down to the sea And the children all climbed up as he knelt on one knee They rode through the valleys and high over hills And they laughed oh so loudly, their fear to kill They came to a lakeside of deep velvet and green And they all stared in wonder at its beauty serene They climbed from the white horse, they watch as it goes As they stood by the green lake water kissed their toes A boat in the distance was suddenly there Waiting to take the children to anywhere The porcupine captain said that he didn't mind In his coat of blunt needles, he looked very kind His crew were six rabbits with fluffy white ears And the children all stroked them and lost all their fears They sailed through the sunshine, across the green lake And they drank lemonade and they ate ice-cream cake They landed in a dark cave as the boat disappeared And they all stood in darkness, through the shadows they peered But out of the blackness shone diamonds so bright Their tiny white hands shielded eyes from the light In a pool of quicksilver stood Neptune so wise And pearls were his white teeth, bright diamonds his eyes He spoke to the children in a voice of velvet And he beckoned them to him, in a circle they sat He told of sky island and of his magic cave And magic pink seashells to the children he gave They listened intently as the music came forth From the magic pink seashells and nobody talked But Neptune had vanished when they lifted their eyes So they walked from the cave as two kingfishers cried In the bright shiny sunlight, they got down on one knee They listened to the sea shells of the musical sea But the day grew much darker, so they climbed on the breeze And they floated to the village, and the people were pleased To see them so happy with their tinkling bells And the people all listened to the musical shells But the children were so sad, the time had come to leave So the people waved goodbye and begged them to believe Of the wonders they had seen in the island of the sky And the children said they would and away they did fly Through the white clouds of no time till forever it seems And the children stayed children and they lived in their dreams |
