I
[bongo beat]
walk on tree tops when
[sharp look to the right]
insistent lumberjacks with
[shake wind chimes - to underscore next line]
saccharine smelling
[dramatic pause]
hacksaws [casual pause] push
[wind chime twirl dance]
yesterday's idols into the sea
[bongo beat] [dramatic pause]
our souls for plastic continents
[extended dramatic pause]
universal child of greed and gluttony and
[three bongo beats]
cold feet
[stand up and remove shoes]
open yourself to the depths
[step forward shaking wind chimes]
unity in chaos means
[slow look to the left]
like clothes and opinions
[bongo beat]
don't knock uniformity it wrote these words
[lingering bongo beat]
sing me a new song
[slight pause]
enhance it with harmonies and sub melodies
[shake wind chimes while starting a slow understated bongo beat to underscore the next words]
eventually crescend to a climax
[gaining louder irregular beats]
yellow suns should collide between the notes
[start swaying]
oceans should rage and galaxies sweat
[start jumping as you sway]
untold millions will join the throng
[bongo beat followed by absolute silence]
rivers will drain to creeks who barley tickle stones
[wind chime]
street lights mimic stars and
[whispering the next bit]
even you
[bongo beat]
leave
[look up extend arms and sigh]
for the night
[look at audience/mirror/cat]
[bongo beat]
walk on tree tops when
[sharp look to the right]
