Full Moon Surprise #91

lyrics

Will of the Will-o-the-Wisp

Surprise door knock
From the old night Hawk
in the sunny light of day

From underneath
His shadowed brim
He whispers : Change of way

It’s early up again
All hopped up on caffeine
Daydreaming and busy-bodying

Remember romance
The high school dance
The student body Commodifying

It’s the will
It’s the Will of the
It’s the Will of the Will-o’-the-Wisp

Night moved in
With a gentle grin
Cool and rich and starry

The Hawk’s voice spoke
Across the dark still lake
Come this way or be sorry

The tall pale grass stalks
Swayed in sync to and fro and fro and to
THIS I THINK IS BACKWARDS
I THINK THIS IS BACKWARDS THINK I

It’s the will
It’s the Will of the
It’s the Will of the Will-o’-the-Wisp

The Moon was mirrored
In the water it shimmered
Singing lay down your Hornicator

Dream a little dream
Of the lazy life
Say the eyes of the alligator

It’s the will
It’s the Will of the
It’s the Will of the Will-o’-the-Wisp
