Butterflies

I saw something gigantic out on the water

I asked my dad for a nickel, he gave it to me

It was kind of misty, I couldn't be sure what it was

And of course he wouldn't tell me

In time I will collect the world

The eggs and wings

(I love the wings)

Of butterflies

A man drove up in an ugly car

And he flashed his lights at everything he saw

And his eyes were red

And his stereo was so loud you couldn't hear the engine's roar

He yelled at everybody in the road

And did not notice all the moths he'd massacred

Spread across the open road

His skin flashed open

All of a sudden there it was

And I still couldn't tell

You know how when you get so close

To something that big

You can't see anything at all

In time I will collect the world

(You who fall on cavalry)

The eggs and wings

(I give my children)

Of butterflies

A moth had settled upon his arm

And he looked at it with a lazy eye

And he lifted up a gigantic hand

And he spread his fingers towards the sky

He nudged the moth to make it fly away

But moths are fragile things and he just wiped its body

He just wiped its body, he just wiped its body

Down across his shoulder blade

He's a wonder, he's a little black-wing boy

Oh, my daughters, he'll fill you with joy

In time I will collect the world

(You who soar o'er Calvary)

The hearts and limbs

(Had you wings)

Of butterflies

[Incomprehensible]
