{for a friend who came to play (pickin' flowers)}

LYRICOS:

Cry baby cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better.

The king of Marigold was in the kitchen
Cooking breakfast for the queen
The queen was in the parlour
Playing piano for the children of the king.

Cry baby cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry baby cry.

The king was in the garden
Picking flowers for a friend who came to play
The queen was in the playroom
Painting pictures for the childrens holiday.

Cry baby cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry baby cry.

The duchess of Kircaldy always smiling
And arriving late for tea
The duke was having problems
With a message at the local bird and bee.

Cry baby cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry baby cry.

At twelve o'clock a meeting round the table
For a seance in the dark
With voices out of nowhere
Put on specially by the children for a lark.

Cry baby cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry baby cry cry cry cry baby
Make your mother sigh.

She's old enough to know better
Cry baby cry
cry cry cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry baby cry.

Fresco fresco fresco: through thick and thin, amorphous/nebulous gateways, to step to the forefront of a vista presenting to you omniscient secrets of the known universe and the untouchable, unknown universe too -- make sure your peepers are wide open & in awareness mode -- cut the inner monologue chatter and just accept the awe-inspiring void -- globules of time shimmering & dripping from your fingertips -- the cosmos rendering you comatose -- the hum permeates your coma state of suspended animation -- cradle rocking as if by tugging/pulling of strings -- Milky Way the cradle of our existence -- goo goo goo ga ga ga -- scientists in vain explaining the concept of inertia sounding babbling in outerspace -- planets: puppets of the Sun -- our Sun melting the retinas -- Ms. Universe, let me map my very own constellation configuration of stars (las estrellas) -- I will map out a set of stars that form a slice of pizza in the night sky -- with your choice of toppings (pepperoni, pineapple, mushrooms, etc.) -- Ms. Universe, do you consider completely my supplications -- I am the VOID incarnate, which is in itself a paradoxical proclamation -- cosmic dust clumped right in there with free will, the Big Bang, and planet Earth -- fleeting expanse -- intangible streaks of undulating light -- I'm groping in the dark for comprehension of your cipher -- your secrets wrapped in a cube placed in the bosom of the Bermuda triangle, and chasing me chasing the secret -- turned inside-out to encounter the back of my very own head -- mi cabeza, mi corazon, mi cuerpo, mi alma, la sangre y huesos, la mente, mi cerebro, el aliento de vida -- translation: my head, my heart, my body, my soul, the blood and bones, the mind, my brain, the breath of life....................
