Astronomy lyrics

The clock strikes twelve and moondrops burst

Out at you from their hiding place,

Like gasoline and oil on a madman's face

As reasons tend to fly away,

Like lesser birds on the four winds, yeah

Like silver scraps in May,

Now the sands become a crust

And most of you have gone away

Oh come, Susie dear, let's take a walk

Just out there upon the beach,

I know you'll soon be married

And you'll want to know where winds comes from,

Well it's never said at all

On the map that Carrie reads

Behind the clock back there you know

At the Four Winds Bar

Hey! (4x)

Four doors at the Four Winds Bar,

Two doors locked and windows barred,

One door's let to take you in,

The other one just mirrors it

Hey! (4x)

In hellish glare and inference

The other one's a duplicate

The Queenly flux, eternal light

Or the light that never warms,

Yes, the light that never, never warms

Yes, the light that never, never warms, never warms, never warms

The clock strikes twelve and moondrops burst

Out at you from their hiding place,

Miss Carrie Nurse and Susie dear

Find themselves at Four Winds Bar

It's the nexus of the crisis

And the origin of storms,

Just the place to hopelessly

Encounter time and then came me

Hey! (4x)

Call me Desdinova,

Eternal light,

These gravely digs of mine

Will surely prove a sight

And don't forget my dog

Fixed and consequent

Astronomy - a star (4x)
