[Intro]

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Verse 1]
I immediately smeared the card of the day,
when I splashed the paint from the glass.
I showed on a plate with a jelly entree,
the sloping cheekbones of the ocean mass.

[Verse 2]
On the scales of a tin-plate fish,
I read the calls of new lips.
And you,
the Nocturne
could play fresh,
on the nice flute of drain pipes, yes?

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Verse 3]
I immediately smeared the card of the day,
when I splashed the paint from the glass.
I showed on a plate with a jelly entree,
the sloping cheekbones of the ocean mass.

[Verse 4]
On the scales of a tin-plate fish,
I read the calls of new lips.
And you,
the Nocturne
could play fresh,
on the nice flute of drain pipes, yes?

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Verse 5]
On the scales of a tin-plate fish,
I read the calls of new lips.
And you,
the Nocturne
could play fresh,
on the nice flute of drain pipes, yes?
