Flash flood warning where the bastard stars occur;
Loose your bearings if you trust the chart
That came over on the Mayflower.

Hide your shadow from the hungry midday sun.
Queen Mab never did me favors
But this hybrid breed has got me on the run -

Chorus:
Name the nameless numbers,
Dance the stepless dance,
Plot the storm a new trajectory.
Question without answer,
Songbird without song;
Which way does the current run
When the river's gone?
The weaver of the sky could see right through it
But I will work this puzzle out
When I learn to intuit.

Tiny shuttered room exchanging black for white;
Full moon burning on a hilltop, doesn't
Take a match to set that light.

Strange new history the tire's nerve endings say:
Blue and silver were the paving stones
But the weaver of the sky stole them away -

CHORUS

Angels dancing on a printed circuit board;
Wizards conjure up the demon and a
Tangled web is their reward.

Cool white logick but the weaver wants me more;
See her laughing in the magick perched
upon the bust above my chamber door -

CHORUS

I will solve this paradox once I get into it.
