As the Dragonfly Flies

The Icicle Works (also known as Icicle Works in the United States) are an English alternative rock band and were named after the 1960 short story "The Day the Icicle Works Closed" by science fiction author Frederik Pohl. They had a top 20 UK hit with "Love Is a Wonderful Colour" (1983). In the US and Canada, they had one top 40 hit, the 1984 single "Birds Fly (Whisper to a Scream)". Led by singer-songwriter Ian McNabb, the band released five albums from 1984 to 1990 before breaking up in 1991. McNabb later convened a revised line-up of the band in 2006 to play live shows; this revised Icicle Works line-up still plays sporadic live dates. more »

As the dragonfly flies, as the flowers rise
As the sleeping streets of azure bend the fool
As the willow weeps, as the lizard peeps
Down tepid streams with dreams of passing through

You are what you are
You are what you are
You are what you are
You are what you are

As the hope expires, as the land conspires
As the lily-pads drift softly through a night
In the musty halls, where invention calls
With the voice of indecision filling fright

You are what you are
You are what you are
You are what you are
You are what you are

Watch it, feel it, hold me, thrill me
Give it, take it, as the dragonfly flies

You are what you are
You are what you are
You are what you are
You are what you are
