The Other End(Of The Telescope)

Shall we agree that just this onceI'm gonna change my lifeUntil it's just as tiny orImportant as you likeAnd in time, we won't even recall that we spokeWords that turned out to be as big as smokeLike smoke, disappears in the airThere's always something smouldering somewhereI know it don't make a difference to youBut oh, it sure made a difference to meYou'll see me off in the distance, i hopeAt the other endAt the other end of the telescopeThere was a time not long agoI dreamt that the world was flatAnd all the colours bled awayAnd that was that em em (note!)And in time, i could only believe in one thingThe sky was just phosphourus stars hung on stringsAnd you swore that they'd always be mineWhen you can pull them down anytimeI know it don't make a difference to youBut oh, it sure made a difference to meYou'll see me off in the distance, I hopeAt the other end amAt the other end of the telescopeThere, there baby now, don't say a wordLie down baby, your vision is blurredYour head is so sore from all of that thinkingI don't want to hurt you nowBut i think you're shrinking (i think you're skrinking)You're half-naked ambition andYou're half out of your witsAnd though your wristwatch always worksYour necktie never fitsNow its so hard to pick the receiver upAnd when i call, i never noticed you could be so smallThe answer was under your noseBut the question never aroseI know it don't make a difference to youBut oh, it sure made a difference to meWhen you find me here at the end of my ropeWhen the head and heart of it finally elopeYou can see us off in the distance, I hopeAt the other endAt the other end of the telescope
