Our daydream spills from my gold head Breaks free of my wooden neck Left a nod over sleeping waves Like bobbing bait for bathing cod Floating flocks of candle swans Slowly drift across wax ponds The men all played along to marching drums And boy did they have fun behind the sea They sang ?so our matching legs are marching clocks And we?re all too small to talk to god Yes we?re all too smart to talk to god" Toast the fine folks casting silver crumbs To us from the dock. Jinxed things ringing as they leak Through tiny cracks in the boardwalk. Scarecrow now it?s time to hatch Sprouting sons and ageless daughters. Those watermelon smiles just can?t ripen underwater Just can?t ripen underwater The men all played along to marching drums And boy did they have fun behind the sea They sang ?so our matching legs are marching clocks And we?re all too small to talk to god Yes we?re all too smart to talk to god Yes we?re all too smart to talk to god"

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque un monde onirique où des personnages s'amusent près de la mer, jouant au rythme de tambours militaires. Ils semblent libres, tout en étant conscients d'une certaine insignifiance face à des questions plus grandes. Les images de la nature, comme des cygnes en cire et des sourires de pastèque, renforcent une atmosphère joyeuse mais mélancolique. On ressent une tension entre le bonheur de vivre dans ce moment et le sentiment que les préoccupations spirituelles sont trop complexes pour être abordées, comme s'ils étaient trop éduqués pour discuter de Dieu. C'est une célébration de l'insouciance et de la magie de l'enfance, mêlée à une réflexion sur l'existence.
