Bromyard, Bromyard...vanilla is thy way?
You hear that? More of those signals...
MATILDA!
Matilda, I tried to build her
Out of daydreams, out of wishes
As I stood and did the dishes
Yes I'm climbing in your window
Yes I'm climbing out your window
Matilda, I could have killed her
But I didn't coz she ain't alive
I really hope she survives
Yes I'm climbing in your window
Yes I'm climbing out your window
Yes I'm climbing in your window
Yes I'm climbing through your window

anointed

Anointed, bobble hatted and forlorn
Lady whistles in my afterthoughts
Here comes a weeping chirrup
Through the very trees
Squeaks like wheelbarrows
Wheelbarrows full of fleas
Frog spawn don't jump
You sarcastically frown
Put him in the pit
Giggle while he drown
Now the colour of a moon
Makes eyes at all your lads
Following the flowers / followers
Following the fads
And pale and pasty ghostlike faces
Welcome you to the funny new places
Ye gads

An important transmission... very important
I'm a car park attendant
I wanna be a car park attendant
I'm a car park attendant
I wanna be a car park attendant
I came tumbling into town
Then everything went brown
I'm a gin soaked millionaire
Nice hat but I got no hair
I'm a car park attendant
I wanna be a car park attendant
I'm a car park attendant
I wanna be a car park attendant
Totally transcendent
My suit is a suit of cards
Something else to disregard
I ain't no plastic surgeon
I'm something else, a different version
I'm a car park attendant
I wanna be a car park attendant
I'm a car park attendant
I wanna be a car park attendant
I play tennis with a baseball bat
I got hair but I got no hat
Come over to my place tonight
Just for you I'll put on a light
I'm a car park attendant
I wanna be a car park attendant
I'm a car park attendant
I wanna be a car park attendant
Totally transcendent
He smiles at every customer in such a particular way
They forget all their troubles and have a lovely day

I thought I could fly
I did, I did
I thought I could fly
I did, I did
I opened the window
Because I thought I could fly
I jumped outside
I did, I did
I flew out the window
And in to the sky
I thought I could fly
I did, I did
I thought I could fly

Yeah I'm an ancient rover
Wandering all over
Once I lost my shoe
Deep down in the river
I really traversed a mountain
(He really traversed a mountain)
With a flower in my hand
Come over from the garden
With a garland in my hand
I met a pretty lady
Beryl was her name
She took me some place shady
I never knew her name
Oh yeah once I lost my shoe
All down in the river
Where the fishes all do go
Yeah I'm an ancient rover
With a flower in my hand
Wha wup bah hellibo
Ah wup bah hellibo

hole

A little bit of tweaking and a little bit of fishing tackle...
There's a hole in your pants
for your legs to go through
Diddly dee diddly doo...
I thought I could fly
I did, I did
I thought I could fly
I did, I did
I opened the window
Because I thought I could fly
I jumped outside
I did, I did
I flew out the window
And in to the sky
I thought I could fly
I did, I did

glimpse

Caught a glimpse
Like a sparkle on the ocean
It was done
Printed ever printed
Only change could change this changeless thing
Glinting wing
So everso unfolding
Spiral twice then boomerang away
So I walked by fairly half a dozen
As they dozed
Their floppy heads aloft
So soft
Melting under frozen pearly river
Iridescent way

Bob and Cherry make it walk
It's made of wood and it doesn't talk
They draw some eyes with a piece of chalk
Bob and Cherry make it walk
We love you
We love you
Bob and Cherry what a peach
Sip Margaritas on the beach
The wooden thing looks at the ground
It's chalky eyes are big and round
Cherry takes another sip
A butterfly lands on her lip
A little girl stops and stares
Cherry and Bob are unaware
We love you
We love you
The wooden thing holds out its hand
They walk together in the sand
The little girl and the wooden thing
All at once it begins to sing
It sings of knots and it sings of grain
Growing leaves and drinking rain
Having roots deep in the ground
Birds nesting in its crown
We love you
We love you
The little girl says "I'm Emily
You make me wish I was a tree"
The wooden thing begins to cry
Its chalky eyes look up to the sky
The big blue sky looks back down
Says "Don't be sad I'm coming down"
Then all at once without fanfare
They disappear into thin air
We love you
We love you
