Bounce off the Bottom

Bounce off the bottom
Window in the water
Bounce off the bottom
Window in the water

Keeping the back light low
Keeping the one eye closed
Running for shelter

Back through the hedges
Tipping the balance one by one

You
With the glimmer
In the grass
You
By the river
It was a long, long way down

Bounce off the bottom
Window in the water
Out in the front yard
Guarding the roses
Smoke cloud
Rolling through the old city
Down all the lanes and the arcades
Fogging the vision
Same destination
New decade
Tracing an endless loop
Looking for the filter
Laughing at the video
One nation under the blanket

Storing it under the ground
Keeping the last ones out
Running for shelter
Back through the hedges
Tipping the balance one by one

You
With the glimmer
In the grass
You
By the river
Oh it was a long way down

Yellowing at the edges
Indigo blurring in the distance
Silhouette drawn to the middle
And then you
Golden one
