(I saw something gigantic out on the water I asked my dad for a nickel He gave it to me It was kind of misty I couldn't be sure what it was And of course, he wouldn't tell me) in time i will collect the world the eggs and wings of butterflies i love the wings of butterflies a man drove up in an ugly car and he flashed his lights at everything he saw and his eyes were red and his stereo was so loud you couldn't hear the engine's roar and he yelled at everybody in the road and did not notice all the moths he'd massacred spread across the open road (weird when you get close to something that BIG you can't see anything at all...) in time i will collect the world the eggs and wings of you who fall on butterflies calvary had you wings of i give my children butterflies a moth had settled upon his arm and he looked at it with a lazy eye and he lifted up a gigantic hand and he spread his fingers towards the sky and he nudged the moth to make it fly away but moths are fragile things and he just wiped its ody down across his shoulder blade he's a wonder, he's a little black-wing boy oh my daughters he'll fill you with joy in time i will collect the world the hearts and limbs of butterflies you who soar o'er calvary had you wings of butterflies oh father, i offer butterflies
