Vapor drums and angels strum
Heart-strings and bodice smoke
Fingers dancing on aqueous frets
Tangles frames, we're cascading
Black cello overtones
Inkwells drizzling dissonant drones
Milky-eyed, we tiptoe
As tenuous overtures
Burnished, tarnished and burnished and tarnished again
Tarnished again
You deserve of a proper send-off
You deserve a mortarboard and gown
You deserve a proper send-off
You deserve a proper putting down
Milky-eyed, we tiptoe
As tenuous overtures
Burnished, tarnished and burnished and tarnished again
Tarnished again
You deserve of a proper send-off
You deserve a mortarboard and gown
You deserve a proper send-off
You deserve a proper putting down
This calls for a proper send-off
You have earned a mortarboard and gown
You have earned a proper send-off
You have earned a proper putting down
