Towers tumbled
All the buildings crumbled
Volcanoes rumbled
Insurance salesman mumbled
Ballerinas bumbled
All the heroes stumbled
Politicians fumbled
Suddenly a hand held out
And like a ticket tout
It was a chart
It was a card
And these are your instructions
And what he offered in his hand
It was a diagram, a master plan
A secret plan for your deduction
Crystals shatter
All the singers chatter
While the drums just clatter
Your silken raiment's tatter
While the poets natter
Oh, it doesn't matter
Please ignore the latter
Settle back, you're growing fatter
Oh, you know you've no conception
Well, you're far out in space
I see you trying to trace a design
Of your heart on the stars
On the open ocean
Like an open book
See the feeble fumble
For a better look
See the sheep shake
In their sleep wake
Not an earthquake
Or a d**h wake
And all the while
Through the testing and the trials
She smiles
Eternity smiles
