Paroles

[Verse 1]
Now somewhere between the plastic, dog-eared flaps
Of the kitchen screen door
Rests a little gypsy moth, it got burned out from the war
(It was a big one) The war, that is, it was a Sunday afternoon
The gypsy was held a prisoner by the screen door from the moon
[Verse 2]
Now somewhere between the dog food and the moth
In the kitchen screen door
I fell in love with the gypsy, so I signed up for the war
(It was a big one) The moth, that is, she was the size of a baby raccoon
I pulled down the plastic prison walls
And we danced in the light of the moon
[Verse 3]
Well, she knows nothing at all about life
Now she knows everything about living
Well, she knows nothing at all about life
Now she knows everything about living
[Verse 4]
She dipped and swirled and dove and twirled and danced in celebration
We'd won the war of the kitchen screen door and the gypsy's liberation
(It was a big one) The victory, and the sun gave way to the moon
Well, we got drunk and she thanked me
And then we drank all afternoon
[Verse 5]
Now somewhere between the back porch
And the yellowy light of the moon
Waits a widow, who even wonders, on a Sunday night in June
(It was a big one) The spider, that is, and she never even batted an eye
When the gypsy flew into her web, and I thought
[Verse 6]
"You know, sometimes it might be difficult
To walk a street blind when you're half in the bag
And three sheets to the wind, so to speak, but to fly?"
[Verse 7]
She knows nothing at all about life
Now she knows everything about living
Well, she knows nothing at all about life
Now she knows everything about living
[Verse 8]
She knows nothing at all about life
Now she knows everything about living
Well, she knows nothing at all about life
Now she knows everything about living
[Verse 9]
Well, she knows nothing at all about life
Now she knows everything about living
Well, she knows nothing at all about life
Now she knows everything about living
