Oh my Ophelia What a mess they've made out of you What's a broken bridesmaid to do When she's blown about like a paper bag on the wind? Why don't you leave them to their pain And put yourself on a train? We can put their madness far behind you Do you know the way from here to Los Alamos? Because I've bought us both a seat So we can be right there for when history repeats And if the beat of a butterfly's wing Could end up changing everything Don't complain Sit back and watch the rain And if a single line of verse Could bring some meaning to the universe Find a pen Before it disappears again Before it disappears again We could settle In Shanghai or Beijing Where they don't believe in kings There amongst the traffic and the trade We could earn a living wage Gather rosebuds while we may Plant poppy seeds on the road behind us You could finally open up that restaurant We could serve what the locals like And sell oranges for the rest of both our lives And if the beat of a butterfly's wing Could end up changing everything Don't complain Sit back and watch the rain And if a single line of verse Could bring some meaning to the universe Find a pen Before it disappears again Well I would have to be Blasted by ecstasy All dressed in poetry to see what you have seen I would have to be Blasted by ecstasy All dressed in poetry to see what you have seen I would have to be Blasted by ecstasy All dressed in poetry to see what you have seen I would have to be Blasted by ecstasy All dressed in poetry to see what you have seen
