"Nebulullaby" (Sean Lennon & Charlotte Muhl) ************************************************* Every night the auburn Sun Tucks in her children one by one Beaming with pride slips from the sky With moons and stars left for night lights Under her skirt her closest child Bright mercurial and wild He's hot headed with iron heart Here her twilight orbit starts Venus reclines upon her shell Her gown of clouds does suit her well A true actress this narcissist Out shines all the other starlets And Mars is clad in spartan red He glares at his kindred planets Don't double cross him or his path Lest you stir his chilling wrath Nearby the insomniac lies Their big brother Jupiter sighs Sleeping with one open eye Blood shot from all the years gone by His sister is so saturnine Her mood rings changing all the time "Why the long face?" her mother pries "Because my core is made of ice" The old windbag Uranus coughs "He's so dim-witted!" they all scoff Once mistaken for a star This lazy bones is no quasar In shadows stalking everyone Pluto's illegitimate son Of the litter he's the runt This black sheep is on the run Hear the music of the spheres The ticking of the cosmic gears I'll sing a nebulullaby As we twirl across the sky Startled by a mortal cry The Sun suddenly realized Earth disowned for her hubbub At least gave birth to human love ******************************************** <8 |
