The Cat Attic - Weird Song, Richard Lyrics

Today I read
That the seas was turning purple
And the sky was turning red
And all they knew
Was to wait for police
Because they'd know what to do
Now I hope my children
Get to sing the blues

Today I drew
The straw that was the shortest
And then you ran out the room
We've been here before
It was just like we practiced when I chased you out the door
Now I hope my children
Won't fall for this no more

Today I saw
Your face inside my cell phone
And I climbed inside my walls
This wasn't how it should be
When we were watching grown up inside the tv
Now I hope my children
Don't need anything to sleep
