Music and vocals by Frank Bango:
Wonderful lyrics by Richy Vesecky
worm was wood
and snail was an ocelot
the deer in the headlights
was a marigold in bloom
lily was lamb
a teardrop was a grain of sand
you were counting sweaters
while sheep were howling at the moon
earth was flat
and sugar fly was sewer rat
the leaves that are blowing
were still growing when we met
bird was bug
and Billy was a Beatle too
I was in love with you
how quickly we forget
we forget the clothes we wear
were only fur and feathers
we held the world together without proof
we forget the lies we tell were yet to be invented
so we lived with only instinct and the truth
snake was stick
and branches were open arms
the tide came in
and it covered up our bed
worm was wood
this used to be a neighbourhood
you made a promise
how quickly we forget

Full fathom five thy father lies;
Of his bones are coral made;
Those are pearls that were his eyes:
Nothing of him that doth fade,
But doth suffer a sea-change
Into something rich and strange.
Sea-nymphs hourly ring his knell:
Hark! now I hear them,—ding-dong, bell.
– Shakespeare (from The Tempest)
