Hey I found a whistle that hangs like a charm, And when my noose is tied I could blow it And fall down into your arms 15 centuries of dissolution and grief, To return a yellow trickster and a thief Hey I found a whistle that works every time That's when the trail escapes to nowhere, And the flood erases the crime Such conviction, To paint all the wall with the blood Of the young and the faithful and the good Yeah I found a whistle as thin as a sheet To split the dumbness of a vision Between asleep and a sleep Tiny axes Repeatedly raising the flag All ignored, real emotion's such a drag Hey I've got a pistol that's aimed at your heart And on dark nights when the moon is right I could show you The head attached with a scarf Aerophane sorceress, at home obeying the fates When it's gone, has it gone all the way? This time Found a whistle That works every time Yeah, I found a whistle That works Hangs like a charm 'round my neck Found a whistle That works every time Yeah, I found a whistle That works Closes my mind every time A whistle, I've got it! I've got it! This time.
