With a yawn the peaceful city goes to sleep It's long till dawn cries a siren in the street 'Cos the night is where the young, bold lovers rule A reign of spite daytime they're hidden in the clouds
Click, clack, cluck Oh, when their feet clack to the ground Click, clack, cluck Oh, it makes a joyful sound 'Cos the air is clean where the danger's always near It's easily seen they're unfamiliar with fear
'Cos boys wanna know what makes men crawl what makes empires fall Wanna hear and see it all 'cos it seems to us a mystic and unbelievable
Don L. Lee and the sisters of the night Yours for free if you dare to take a bite 'Cos love is cheap and nutritious in the streets We hide and seek it's easy not to fall asleep
'Cause boys wanna know what makes men crawl what makes empires fall Wanna hear and see it all 'cos it seems to us a mystic and unbelievable
Lofty hills of laughs we climb sugary spices wait outside Time is on our side and we have everything to gain But if you hear the mountains swing if you hear the angels roar Let me know, I'll play the chord There's a goal in our flow that would make a strong man bow
Oh! Oh, it's a marvel to be seen how it flows in chryzantemummy green But some do scorn hearing the fleshy engines roar Afraid to show where their angelheads do grow
Ah hoo
I wanna hear and see it all 'cos it seems to us a mystic and unbelievable
