Nine Miles High (Another Wafer, Please)
The hours pass
With mannered ease
I’ll have another
Wafer, please
Or else they’re marked
With heavy toil
A day of sweat
And gritty soil
It doesn’t matter
If you say
That you don’t like it
It doesn’t matter
If you cry
It doesn’t matter
If you wail
And rail against it
You’re going to have
To say goodbye
The sun games up
And then goes down
The moon appears
Without a sound
It doesn’t matter
If you say
That you don’t like it
It doesn’t matter
If you cry
It doesn’t matter
If you wail
And rail against it
You’re going to have
To say goodbyе
Don’t let them tell you
That you only gеt one ticket
The time is long
But you are never
Going to trick it
Always remember
Look around
Buildings rise
And babies wail
Cars will collide
And grownups fail
The winter comes
And then it goes
Water will fall
And flowers grow
It doesn’t matter
If you say
That you don’t like it
It doesn’t matter
If you cry
It doesn’t matter
If you wail
And rail against it
You’re going to have
To say goodbye
Don’t let them tell you
That you only get one ticket
The time is long
But you are never
Going to trick it
Always remember
Look around
