Cloudflakes

Sitting in the big black oven

What a clever place to hide

With my eyes wide open

My face is a flaming pie

Barenaked in the kitchen

And everyone sleeping tight

The clock goes to seven

I dance but I don't know why

I'm standing in the schoolyard

Waiting for my teacher to come

She looks gently downward

And picks me up in the sun

I'm chewing cloudflakes

I'm falling apart

One with my mind tapes

One for my heart

I'm making mistakes

When I'm counting stars

One when the light brakes

One in the turn

I'm standing in the shelter

Waiting for my mother to come

She left me in winter,

And she'll pick me up in the fall

Mmmm mmm mmmm...

MMmm mmm mmmm...

The ocean is friendly

The ocean is mine

Caught in my bathtube

With a fishing line

Little fishes swimming in the shallows

Little fishes driving me mad

Too more fishes to swallow

So they cannot eat me back
