We beautiful chameleons Look you in the eye While we change our shade I could never respect your consonance My jaw's too wide To want one thing We beautiful chameleons, laughing in the back while we stalk our prey I'll admit, sometimes sometimes I'm hideous That's just the price of being brave Not to walk on water But to dance on air Not to walk on water But to dance on air We beautiful chameleons Swimming through the dust That the breathing shed Why be safe, when we can be colorful? Let virtue take her sacred nap We beautiful chameleons Singing into wounds that are freshly traced It pays to be A clever animal But thinking is just forgetting anyway Not to walk on water But to dance on air Not to walk on water But to dance on air Not to walk on water But to dance on air
