(When you walk) You should never turn round
Never turn round, never turn round
(Or we'll all) Vanish into the ground
Deep underground, amphibian bound
(On the whole) You have gotta think straight
Gotta think straight, thotta strink gate
(Put it all) In a blanket of waves
A blanket of waves, a blanket-dot-waves

You could've been the best thing, oh no
You could've been the best thing
You could've been the best thing for me
You could've been the best thing

You could've been the best thing
You could've been, you could've been

(When you're up) You should never look down
Never look down, never look down
(Out of luck) Out of meaning and bounds
Circles in rounds, circles in rounds
(Semaphore) You're a beacon of light
A weakening sign, a leak undernight
(Cellar door) Put your memory behind
I'm out of this mind and fresh out of rhymes
