"Song For Langston Birch" lyrics
"Song For Langston Birch"
Man, I was a diamond
I fell into the diamond sea
A substitute starlight
A prism for the rainbow stream
Would you tell me that you want me
Would you throw me back lightly
Into the diamond sea
Shine on, see through me
Your expensive reflection is seen
A chandelier ghost trap
Who's danced on the fingers of queens
Would you tell me that you want me
Would you throw me back lightly
Into the diamond sea
Jealous of gold
I am emulous into the fire
My love is not shared
It is only for you I can shine
If you decided
It's not diamonds you wanted
It is gold
Then let me go on
I would rather just drown and go on
Would you tell me that you want me
Would you throw me back lightly
Would you tell me that you want me
Would you throw me back lightly
Into the diamond sea

Take it baby, you can have it...

It gets a little easier each time you make it disappear?
Oh fools, the magician bends the rules
