Towers tumbled - all the buildings crumbled 
Volcanoes rumbled 
Insurance salesman mumbled 
Ballerians bumbled - all the heroes stumbled 
Politicians fumbled 

Suddenly a hand held out - take a ticket tout 
It was a chart - it was a card 
And those are your instructions 
And what he offered in his hand 
It was a diagram - master plan 
A secret plan for your deduction 

Crystals shatter - all the singers chatter 
While the drums just clatter 
Your silken raiment's tatter 
Please ignore the latter 
Settle back you're growing fatter 
Oh you know you've got no conception 
Well, you're far out in space 
I see you trying to trace a design 
Of your heart on the stars 

On the open ocean - like an open book 
See the feeble fumble for a better look 
See the sheep shake 
In their sleep wake 
Not an earthquake 
Or a death wake 

And all the while - through the testing and the trials 
She smiles 
Eternity smiles..
