Flurobella

Flurobella and Patches the Cat
It was going to be called Flurobella flees the flummery of fiscal flux after watching the news but I just love these lyrics and the song so much besides…...

Unicorns and cannonballs
Palaces and piers
Trumpets towers and tenements
Wide oceans full of tears
Flags rags ferryboats
Scimitars and scarves
Every precious dream and vision
Underneath the stars
You climbed on the ladder
With the wind in your sails
You came like a comet
Blazing your trail
Too high too far too soon
You saw the whole of the moon
The Whole of the Moon

Mike Scott
The Waterboys
....with all the doom and gloom surrounding us we must never forget how to dream;)

    Well done. Bright and sunshine-y and full of madness (in a nice way). :o) Teams nicely with the lyrics. Oh yes – don’t start me on the UK’s bleak future! :o(

  • Shanina Conway replied

    Thanks and I won’t start…. but think Unicorns and cannonballs, palaces and piers, every precious dream and vision…and we’ll all get through it;)

    SHAZAAAAM! What an explosive package of fun! Pixies Live Shanina. Love the colors, love the cat, love the toes and love the way she just skips along a story arc. You can go any way with her… from kiddie to hinky graphic novels. And better than anything, those fat childlike eyes look simultaneously intelligent and sad… but not wondering. Yep….. SHAZAAAAM!
