Well Well World

Well Well World, 
You've lived up to what you said
Chemical tests 
Tests with you
You.

Fatality to the end,
The seas keep roaming
The earth keeps spinning
Spinning like a ferris wheel
Spinning like a dog catching a juicy bone 

Well Well Word, 
Don't give up now
Give up, now between my peace
Pastilles don't glitter in the night sky
The night sky blooms 
The orchard scream 

For it can never be
Never be make belive
