lyrics

There's no way you could ever catch me.
There's no way you could ever see me.
I'm stuck between two layers of time and space.

They stay up late to see the sun rise.
They plan ahead some things to improvise.
They soak their keys in bowls of lemonade.

I'll splice my DNA for shark teeth.
I'll break them biting things without a care.
I know there's more teeth down inside my gums.

These butterflies are big enough to ride.
Just grab that abdomen and hold on tight.
Fix up antenna with some new headlights.

If water can slow don the light rays,
and light rays go faster than time,
refracted rainbows are a friend of mine.

You built those homemade glasses out of ice.
Survival skills for those with bad eyesight.
Your icy iris never worked quite right.

We heard the molting of tarantulas.
You'd think it makes now sound,
it can't, but does.

Everything makes sound if it's quite enough.
