Lullaby Baxter
Текст песни The Chatterbox Chronicles

If I were you, I'd build a time machine
So you can go and find out where I've been
I'm a sad giraffe, but you never asked why
Even laughing gas makes me cry

Caterpillars, chatterboxes, costume parties
Paradoxes, lion tamers, railway stations
Hieroglyphics, constellations

Daffodils taught astronauts mathematics
Barnum and Bailey kept elephants in their attics
The least you could do is build a time machine
It's time you go and find out where I've been

Silver nitrate, X-ray glasses, tightrope walkers
Tap-dance classes, vacuum cleaners, birthday presents
Geiger counters, phosphorescence

Infinity's pretty measly after all
Like a donkey doing cartwheels down the hall
So hand out straitjackets on sinking ships
Just quit calling me Miss Apocalypse

Silver nitrate, X-ray glasses, tightrope walkers
Tap-dance classes, vacuum cleaners, birthday presents
Geiger counters, phosphorescence

I never meant to steal that Ferris wheel
But, you know, flashing lights have a certain appeal
And people going nowhere as happy as can be
Thought I'd take them home so they could live with me
