Time Isn’t Real (and Neither Are Colours)

Hands on a clock, the trigger is cocked

Held hostage to the passage of time

Refraction of light cause people to fight

For seemingly no reason or rhyme

Pendulums swing as mockingbirds sing

The curtains have drawn to a close

As the space turtle glides with the moon alongside

The Mars Rover flies up her nose

Time isn’t real and neither are colors

Knock down the wall and build a bridge instead

Colors aren’t real and neither is time

Don't comb your hair and spend the day in bed

Chartreuse, magenta, cyan and salmon

Someone invented those hues

Numbers arranged in a circular fashion

Dictate when to watch the news

Purple, blue, yellow and red

All live inside of your head

The cogs in a watch can be fast or slow

Why it’s this way no-one knows

Time isn’t real and neither are colors

Knock down the wall and build a bridge instead

Colors aren’t real and neither is time

Don't comb your hair and spend the day in bed

The goblins and trolls fill in Lancashire's holes

With candy and comforting lies

The space turtle's stuck, but by some stroke of luck

She was saved by the buoyancy of lime

Time isn’t real and neither are colors

Knock down the wall and build a bridge instead

Colors aren’t real and neither is time

Don't comb your hair and spend the day in bed

Time isn’t real and neither are colors

Knock down the wall and build a bridge instead

Colors aren’t real and neither is time

Don't comb your hair and spend the day in bed
