Lyrics

Lying in the hot sun today
 Watching the clouds run away
 Thought a little while about you
 The sky was a petrifying blue
 And while the geese flew past
 For no reason at all, I let the sky fall
 This is an empty country
 And I am the king, and I should not be allowed to touch anything
 ♪
 I picked myself up off the ground
 Shook the grass from my hair and I walked around
 Felt the warm sun in my eye
 Strangers were passing by
 I shimmied up the black walnut tree
 Let the hard blue sky fall right through me
 And I saw the sad young cardinals trying to sing
 And I should not be allowed to touch anything
