Your dreams are beautiful Your rhythm impeccable Marching the hollow men Into the straw Descended from the apes Wound-up to become Clockwork Monkeys, Clanging on their drums, With head full of wishes, Wishes full of heading Down from the apes Wound-up to become Clockwork Monkeys, Clinging to their drums, With head full of wishes, Wishing and wishing...
