Crying lightning
[00:17.48] Outside the cafe by the cracker factory
[00:21.20] You were practicing a magic trick
[00:25.98] And my thoughts got rude, as you talked and chewed
[00:29.96] On the last of your pick and mix
[00:34.48] Said, "You're mistaken if you're thinking that I haven't been called "cold" before"
[00:39.00] As you bit into your strawberry lace
[00:43.00] And then offered me your attention in the form of a gobstopper
[00:47.78] Is all you had left and it was going to waste
[00:52.03] Your pastimes, consisted of the strange
[00:57.11] And twisted and deranged
[01:00.08] And I love that little game you had called
[01:03.00] "Crying Lightning"
[01:05.40] And how you like to aggravate the ice-cream man on rainy afternoons
[01:17.61] The next time that I caught my own reflection
[01:22.13] It was on it's way to meet you
[01:24.25] Thinking of excuses to postpone
[01:27.70] You never looked like yourself from the side
[01:30.62] But your profile could not hide
[01:33.02] The fact you knew I was approaching your throne
[01:37.02] With folded arms you occupied the bench like toothache
[01:41.26] Stood and puffed your chest out like you never lost a war
[01:46.04] And though I tried so not to suffer the indignity of a reaction
[01:51.10] There was no cracks to grasp or gaps to claw
[01:55.35] And your pastimes, consisted of the strange
[01:59.86] And twisted and deranged
[02:02.51] And I hate that little game you had called
[02:05.71] "Crying Lightning"
[02:08.39] And how you like to aggravate the icky man on rainy afternoons
[02:13.97] Uninviting
[02:17.42] But not half as impossible as everyone assumes you are
[02:24.06] Crying lightning
[02:54.62] And your pastimes, consisted of the strange
[02:58.06] And twisted and deranged
[03:00.45] And I hate that little game you had called
[03:03.64] "Crying Lightning"
[03:07.09] "Crying Lightning"
[03:11.36] "Crying Lightning"
[03:17.20] "Crying Lightning"
[03:21.72] Your pastimes, consisted of the strange
[03:25.19] And twisted and deranged
[03:27.62] And I hate that little game you had called
[03:31.08] "Crying"
