The sky was a beautiful shade of blue
And the rigid, yellow burning sphere up high
Was shining brightly until noon.
It shined so bright it imbued its hue
Upon the denizens of time,
And I’ll admit the sky, the sky! was a beautiful shade of blue.
The thoughts of millions were suppressed and subdued,
Removed from their heads as they smiled at the sky,
The sky with the sphere that shone brightly ‘til noon.
Oh but at noon it happened, they had not a clue!
The sky was alight with a hundred new lies,
And yet the sky, the sky! was still a beautiful shade of blue!
The lies in the sky, harbingers of doom,
Hovered in the air and dared us to cry,
Shining brightly well after noon.
Metallic and round they grew nearer the ground, and just as they should,
They went off with a boom; destroying our hopes, our dreams, and our lives.
And yet the sky, the sky, I swear, I swear, was a beautiful shade of blue!
And something in the sky was still shining brightly, well into the afternoon.
And the rigid, yellow burning sphere up high
Was shining brightly until noon.
It shined so bright it imbued its hue
Upon the denizens of time,
And I’ll admit the sky, the sky! was a beautiful shade of blue.
The thoughts of millions were suppressed and subdued,
Removed from their heads as they smiled at the sky,
The sky with the sphere that shone brightly ‘til noon.
Oh but at noon it happened, they had not a clue!
The sky was alight with a hundred new lies,
And yet the sky, the sky! was still a beautiful shade of blue!
The lies in the sky, harbingers of doom,
Hovered in the air and dared us to cry,
Shining brightly well after noon.
Metallic and round they grew nearer the ground, and just as they should,
They went off with a boom; destroying our hopes, our dreams, and our lives.
And yet the sky, the sky, I swear, I swear, was a beautiful shade of blue!
And something in the sky was still shining brightly, well into the afternoon.
