To the wide-eyed opposite
My agenda was hidden well
Now I don't know where I left it
I woke up in Escher's World today
My mother said it was okay
Up's down, down is out, out is in
Stairways circle back to where you've been
Time falls, water crawls, are you listening?
Did you ever chase your tail
Through a maze of exit doors?
I have seen the light my braille
I have blazed the road before us
We're walking in Escher's World again
Rise up you nimble-minded men
Birds roar, lions soar, sheep are cruel
Snails pace, papers chase, midgets rule
Stuffed shirts, status hurts, we ain't fooling
Let the sequels have their day
The remake's on its way
We're living in Escher's world it seems
We're wide awake within our dreams
Socks hop, lemons drop, butter flies
Tough wimps, sadoshrimps, mojos rise
Pips squeak, widows peek, are you surprised?
Ah, living in Escher's world
We're living in Escher's world it seems
We're wide awake within our dreams
Birds roar, lions soar, sheep are cruel
Snails pace, papers chase, midgets rule
Stuffed shirts, Ethel Mertz, we ain't fooling
Socks hop, lemons drop, butter flies
Tough wimps, sadoshrimps, mojos rise
Pips squeak, widows peek, are you surprised?
Up's down, down is out, out is in
Time falls, water crawls, are you listening?
Stairways circle back to where you've been
Stairways circle back to where you've been
Through the passing strange I fell To the wide-eyed opposite My agenda was hidden well Now I don't know where I left it I woke up in Escher's World today My mother said it was okay Up's down, down is out, out is in Stairways circle back to where you've been Time falls, water crawls, are you listening? Did you ever chase your tail Through a maze of exit doors? I have seen the light my braille I have blazed the road before us We're walking in Escher's World again Rise up you nimble-minded men Birds roar, lions soar, sheep are cruel Snails pace, papers chase, midgets rule Stuffed shirts, status hurts, we ain't fooling Let the sequels have their day The remake's on its way We're living in Escher's world it seems We're wide awake within our dreams Socks hop, lemons drop, butter flies Tough wimps, sadoshrimps, mojos rise Pips squeak, widows peek, are you surprised?
