Lyrics
Sitting in the bottom of a well
Dreaming up the world
Twice a day
Hey, hey, hey
Sunlight it unfurled
Forced into cartography
In Inner Mongolia
The outer edge of universes
Seems to control ya
She imagines maps on the periodic table
And invented modernism from my kitchen table
Glass, diamonds, multiple facets
Sand, carbon, origami magnets
She works in green marble walls
And lives in crystal ice
Manipulating the ivory in my crumbling dice
A blue cup of caffeine launches multiple screens
A psychedelic balloon
In a herringbone sea
Toy soldiers, dancing nurses of light
Planetariums and ambient jet flights
The sun touches down from the sky
Horizon magnetizes yellow so high
Dressing for the secret agents' ball
The Four Horses of Venice oversee all
The Four Horses of Venice oversee all
