The magpie comes a-calling Drops a marble from the sky Tin roof sounds alarming Wake up child
Let this be a warning says the magpie to the morning Don't let this fading summer pass you by
Don't let this fading summer pass you by
Black hands held so high The vulture wheels and dives Something on the thermos yanked his chain
He smelled your boring apex Rotting on the train tracks He laughed under his breath Because you thought you could outrun sorrow
Take your own advice
Cause thunder and lightning gets you rain
Run an airtight mission, a Cousteau expedition Find a diamond at the bottom of the drain
A diamond at the bottom of the drain
Mockingbirds sing in the middle of the night
All his songs are stolen so he hides
Stolen from the mouth of the whiporwill, screaming car alarms
He sings I'm four years special
He knows you're afraid of the dark Come on sorrow, take your own advice
Hide under the bed, turn out the light The stars this night in the sky are ringing out You can almost hear them saying
Close your eyes now kid
Close your eyes now kid
Morning's teeth are lit
They are waiting
They are waiting
