Holopaw - Hula-La lyrics
rate meThought he heard whispering outside the diving bell...<br />
Sounded like his little sister laughing<br />
(when she was lying with the glass snakes in the yard -<br />
when she was smiling over pretty cakes).<br />
<br />
High above on the bright side of the tether, <br />
the captain breaks into a shore-leave-grin.<br />
He thought the swishing of her grass skirt sounded like whispering,<br />
sounded like, "Hush, now." Hula-la.<br />
<br />
The clouds were lit from the inside,<br />
flickered like jack-o-lantern light.<br />
She was breathing smoke rings like little lassoes.<br />
He was bobbing like a bird on the edge of his glass.<br />
<br />
Far below on the quiet end of the tether,<br />
he blinks his lids under the crush of green water...<br />
the murky glow of the candles on a cake... <br />
hears the hum of "Hush, now." Hula-la.
