Hey!
How are you?
How have you been?
Long years have lapsed
since last we spoke
but life happens now and then
Come on inside
realities' high
should prove to be
an interesting night.
Leave your troubles at the door
you won't need the static anymore
set logic aside
there is no wait for this ride.
Let's have a line
and see the slow march of time
parade around the living room
Have a little blow
for your nose
watch the hours loom
illuminating bemused design
A little bit of candy
makes everyone feel dandy
in the sweet comforts of home
Sugar and spice
how wonderfully nice
to feel happiness
settling into weary bones
So take a few hits
join me on this fun filled
elastic trip
into the ringmasters' head
Big top steeples
home to Picasso people
swimming beneath
swirling circus tents
Licorice lights
and satin sound
when at last the Candyman comes
All that is left
is a broader understanding
of possibility
when the carnival kaleidoscope is done
Come on now
have a seat
sit back
relax
wrap your mind
around some smoke
Have a drink
take a think
life is but a joke
So laugh with me
and let your brain recede
to some other place my friend
We'll talk a while about life
all of our trivial plights
and when finished;
welcome yesterdays' end
Our thoughts recline
through this great divide
the future is always grinning
Spirits set in
and throw our glass world into spin
at the ceremony of tomorrows beginning
