Giant Wasp Running

Lyrics

I would walk 10 thousand miles to a firetruck with your name on it I would walk across the polar ice cap where you left your footprints I would walk among walruses and giant sandworms and lizards Who had eyes that blazed with a scorn for the love-sick traveler Because I am the man with the legs like skyscrapers And the fingers like television antenne And you can only stop me with a hand gernade taped to the side of a swinging chandelier And yet I remember you I rеmember you I remеmber you I remember you I went to the race track and I won 3 hundred dollars on a horse Who was actually a giant red wasp I spoke to the wasp after the race, after all the spectators had left And I saw that she was crying I dried the tears that fell from her eyes with a wool blanket And I asked her why she was so sad She turned her head And explained the following: "I am tired of running sir I am tired of flying also I would love to just do nothing Except sit as still as an iron statue." Well, I could not agree with This lovely wasp For the beauty of an insect Rests in it's movement It's flight And the way it fades Into the tall grass
