Escher's World - Steve Taylor

Through the passing strange I fell

To the wide-eyed opposite

My agenda was hidden well

Now I don’t know where I left it

I woke up in Escher’s world today

My mother said it was okay

Up’s down, down is out, out is in

Stairways circle back to where you’ve been

Time falls, water crawls, are you listening?

Did you ever chase your tail

Through a maze of exit doors?

I have seen the light by braille

I have blazed the road before us

We’re living in Escher’s world again

Rise up, you nimble-minded men

Birds roar, lions soar, sheep are cruel

Snails pace, papers chase, midgets rule

Stuffed shirts, status hurts, we ain’t foolin'

Let the sequels have their day

The remake’s on it’s way

We’re living in Escher’s world, it seems

We’re wide awake within our dreams

Socks hop, lemons drop, butter flies

Tough wimps, sadoshrimps, mojos rise

Pips squeak, widows peek, are you surprised?

We’re living in Escher’s world it seems

We’re wide awake within our dreams

Birds roar, lions soar, sheep are cruel

Snails pace, papers chase, midgets rule

Stuffed shirts, Ethel Mertz, we ain’t foolin'

Socks hop, lemons drop, butter flies

Tough wimps, sadoshrimps, mojos rise

Pips squeak, widows peek, are you surprised?

Up’s down, down is out, out is in

Time falls, water crawls, are you listenin'?

Stairways circle back to where you’ve been

Stairways circle back to where you’ve been

Stairways circle back to where you’ve been
