A monkey chant from someplace tribal
Maybe trivial, who knows, echoing in my ears
Laughter, tears, maybe another holiday
The best gifts, who knows, perhaps the ones not tied up
In ribbon, that is to say, I love you
Regrets far and few in between, who knows, perhaps I lied
To make you feel a better person, don't cry
Life's not a movie, who knows, cos I love the dance
Of madness, death, the one with twirls and little sense
Secure in swathes of colour, who knows, invading thoughts and little else
Coz life's full of malfunctioning buttons
On dresses, keyboards, and who knows, my lips too?
Cannot quite figure, where the music is from tonight
Or if there's a drunk girl, who knows, puking on shoes
Floundering in oblivion, but there's work to be done elsewhere
A glassful of water would be nice, who knows, this random stream
Of thought might even be going someplace...
Who knows?
