Buzz-Saws
Who does the sawing under the seas?
The sword-fishes saw
Whatever they please,
The sharks, the crabs, the giant trees
It took a million years to grow,
And the mermaids weep when they saw them so.
The sword-fishes saw
Whatever they please,
The sharks, the crabs, the giant trees
It took a million years to grow,
And the mermaids weep when they saw them so.
When the sun sinks hissing into the ocean,
The sword-fishes come
With squealing commotion,
And while the sun's in a dying state,
They saw his gold into pieces of light.
The sword-fishes come
With squealing commotion,
And while the sun's in a dying state,
They saw his gold into pieces of light.
