Jellyfish - Brighter Day lyrics

Your rating:


strike the tent

unpop the paintbox

and pack the carriages

with the flesh freaks of fear

at the beach 

we left them shell shocked

lining up the avenue

in view of next year



high steppin'

like a brigade

down the block

don't be shocked

to hear somebody say "wake up doomsday"

it's time to join the big parade

come and march in time with the band

playing loud fighting crowds

to see the matinee (it's tailor made)

because it's gonna be a brighter day



for the seeker of thrills

behind the ferris wheels

there's a man with one foot in the 

grave and one foot on a

banana peel

he's an actor of sorts

who sold himself too short

so now he travels door to door

performing 'death of a salesman'

oh my country tears of thee

how the circus makes the world

safe for anarchy

in a cage with an uneasy chair

atop a merry go round

he wears that clown crown

can't you see that you can

come as you are

as you were

if you prefer you can change

(yes it can be arranged)

when you come and join the big parade

but you can leave your bagage

at home don't you pack

don't look back

then you can truly say

'goodbye highway'

that what then and this is nowadays



come on you big shot and enjoy

the rain

take a class in pumping blood into

those weathered veins

and i bet you'd still come out as

a teacher's pet



(ice cream and you cause it come to

being watertight scream but you'll

wrote that book you own the

copyright and clown costume 

always be a plumber,

i saw it hanging in the closet of

your elbow room with a pipe dream)



if you've had it up to here with

what's real

i'm here to tell you that it's no big deal

because it's not too late

if you hurry up you can

come on and join the big charade

line up shut up clean up and shave

cause right behind you in the back

of the fray

is a blade he's a renegade

turning bullshit into marmalade

don't you know there's gonna be

a heavy price to pay

for pushing all these clouds away

it's bound to be a brighter day

it can't help  but be a brighter day
