Icarus Missed Lyrics

Verlaines Icarus Missed

Icarus missed The populace did not...

A rare sea-bird flies once in a while High up in the blue sky People shoot at it like lunatics And take aeroplanes

Icarus missed The populace did not

Trivia... Trivia He's a head bird, he's an idiot, he's an artist And he's way above your head

Wisdom was a pearl before it was a swine You can't let yours wallow I can't with mine... They cut your legs off when the blood Couldn't face up to that task anymore...

Icarus missed Who twisted the arrow

Trivia... Trivia It's a head-bird, it's a trivia-killing trogon And it's way above your head

The story is untrue of how he came to fall down The sun was never that hot: He was shot from the ground! He was shot from the ground! He was shot from the ground
