The Smiler

A silent flick of a serpent’s tongue
Shut the light, here’s the opium lung
The pale blue haze of a beetle’s eye
Turn on the night with a phat smile

The smiler watches certainly
The hero of the hourglass dream
The smiler cries, you leave
The hero of the hourglass dream

A poisonous tale of a dream unknown
Turn loose the swans, the truth be told
A wizard’s eye that has no gleam
The mist of the midnight rolls by me

The smiler watches certainly
The hero of the hourglass dream
The smiler cries, you leave
The hero of the hourglass dream

When he's done
He plays tricks on you
Can't you hear him come?
He'll put a smile through you

Cheek to cheek
That toothless grin
He'll walk away
You'd better turn on that smile
Again

The smiler watches certainly
The hero of the hourglass dream
The smiler cries, you leave
The hero of the hourglass dream
