The first one in was a bumble beeCrawled in the window & he stared at meWith lips as thin as you not smilingNot wide enough for a lie to hide inThe first I saw was a bumble bee& he told me I'd wasted your precious timeHitting out at the walls of a tiny mindHe worked his way right through the skinThis thin skin I slumber inThe first I saw that bumble bee& the next one in was a dancing frogHe had a song for each one I had lost& he bent his legs around the hoursAt the foot of the bed where I had souredThe next one in was a dancing frogHe said, "You never moved, you never dancedNever rode a melody into chanceNever sang one song true enoughTo call the birds back to the loftYou never moved, you never danced"& the next one in was a stipple-back fishThe next one in was a stipple-back fishLetras de cancionesHe said, "I would grant you three wishesBut I'm not in the business of giving out wishes"The next one in was a stipple-back fish& the last I saw the stipple-back fishThe last I saw the stipple-back fishHis gills filled up with the dustOf a room that's not seen anything muchThe last I saw that stipple-back fish& the last one in was a winter mothThe last one in was a winter mothLike me he'd nothing to sayHe laughed at the fish & fluttered awayThe last one in a winter mothFrantic & flapping & brittle & softThe last one in that winter mothLike me he'd nothing to sayHe laughed at the fish & fluttered awayThe last one in that winter moth From Letras Mania
