The fountain throws up a white haystack of spray;
The strong wind is carrying the sun away;
Night is a geyser from yon blackheath hole;
Darkness that bubblewraps Nelson's stone pole.
Safe until morning
Safe until day
Safe from the east-end
To the west way.
Traffic in sunlight and traffic by neon;
Lion-names are: dumber and dumbest and leon;
The knife b'long Mac, the mainframe's just peasy
But nothing about this set-square is too easy.
Safe until morning
Safe until day
Safe from the east-end
To the west way.
Metropolis stonelands are thridded by rail:
Here living is EPIC and death EPIC FAIL--
The river keeps moving but won't move away
Reluctantly night baton-passes to day.
Safe until morning
Safe until day
Safe from the east-end
To the west way.
