Like An Egg
Oh, you'll say hello
Oh, you'll say hello as you walk on by
Through caverns, streets and skies
Through elevators' lies
Oh, to that place I go
Where the streets are empty
Just carnival doors
And dolls they keep inside
They want me to pass on by
But they want something more inside
It's like an egg, it goes high (repeat)
And oh, you'll say hello as you walk on by
Chorus It's like an egg, it goes high (repeat)
So high, so high in the sky
And when the street lamps are low
And all the orange glow
The carnival changes sides
And they line up for their dinner in the light
It's like an egg, it goes high (repeat)
Oh, I'm back in the carnival show
Where no-one's there watching
Could be, I know
But I've got to go
It's like an egg, it goes high (repeat)
Chorus It's like an egg, it goes high (repeat)
So high, so high in the sky (repeat)

I Might Have Some Worm or Little Bug
I might have some worm or little bug (repeat)
My little bug, my own, my own little bug

Cute Little Dog
Whether it's a sunny or a rainy day
Determines how the children will find their play
But we've got a dog, and it goes its way
And where it goes, I don't know
(Chorus) Cute little dog, feed it dog food
Sometimes its paws are very dirty
And it makes a mess indoors
There are fewer cats than when we first moved here, I'm fairly sure
But when the night falls we let it inside
We keep it from the cold and keep it dry
So the next day, s/he can go outside
And where it goes, I don't know
(Chorus) Cute little dog, feed it dog food

The Light Across the Sea
The light across the sea
Is moving and won't stay long
The light across the sea
Is burning and it's so strong
The light across the sea
Might go again, and won't find it
So you'll find amidst the trees
Someplace where you would have nothing
Cho. Ah hah hum (repeat)
The light crosses through the trees
The light crosses through the trees
To Mill Valley, to live
The light, it turns into breeze
And we'll find it somewhere
You'll see
Cho. Ah hah hum (repeat)

Lisa Lights Candles
Lisa lights candles for every boy
Lisa lights candles for every boy
They think they can find Lisa there inside
Lisa lights a candle, then she runs and hides
Will they know when they see her?
Will they know when they find her?
Will they know just to meet her?
But it's too soon to tell
Lisa lights candles for every boy (repeat)
They think they can find Lisa there inside
Lisa lights a candle, then she runs
And hides, hides, hides

(You Shouldn't) Drift Away
Now I've done my hour at the insane tower
All the time I thought I'd spend today
Watch the people watching me
Oddly far away from me
And at the end I wish that they would say
(Chorus) You shouldn't drift away (repeat)
Now they're stuck at the carnival
They don't know why they're even there
They can't even explain why
Now they want to throw the switch
Watch it fall around and which
And at the end I wish that they would say
(Chorus) You shouldn't drift away (repeat)
You shouldn't drift away

Snowman, You're Resting
Chorus Snowman you're
Snowman you're
Snowman you're resting awhile
(repeat)
You keep books in two colors
And all your sheets are white
A thousand-candle fireplace
A kitchen light
Chorus Snowman you're resting awhile (repeat)
I put each glass just where it would be
Shining in moonlight
We know it's cold outside, but
You're inside tonight
Snowman you're resting awhile (repeat)
And everyone sees through you
Although you're made of snow
Or meets you in the grass somewhere down
Far below
While, while, while, while
Snowman, you're resting awhile
Snowman, you're resting
