Beatle bones ‘n’ smokin’ Stones The dry sands fall The strawberry mouth; strawberry moth; strawberry caterpillar Strawberry butterfly; strawberry fields The winged eel slither on the heels of today’s children Strawberry feels forever
Yeah, roosters, ol’ glass roosters, stick to your race In a drag-queen, live-wood farmhouse Tractors are clawin’; the folks are crawlin’ Trees in a row climbing a coach and I blow rich Red, blue, yellow sunset Where I set and you set; and I’ve loved and you’ve loved And I’ve seen and you’ve seen
Salt Man has just made his mark – and crumbled The dark – the light – the dark – the day Porcelain children see through white lights Soft-cracker bats, Cheshire cats named The Dark – the Light – the Dark – the Day
Blue veins through gray-felt tomorrows Cellular sail-boat – ye ole feathered kind Blow it into a pond swayin’ in circles Red, blue, yellow sunset. Where I’ve set and you’ve set; and I’ve loved and you’ve loved What I saw and you saw Strawberry feels forever
The Fall
Beatle bones and smokin' Stones The rise and fall The strawberry mouth Strawberry cloth Strawberry caterpillar Strawberry butterfly Strawberry fields
The long eels slither down the lanes of today's children Strawberry fields forever Ahhhhhhh
And junk man has just made his mark and crumbled And I'm gonna call the money so the [ ] Sun is all And [ ] And he said and I said and I saw and you know And I saw, and you saw, and I knew
Curse of the children see through white lights The black dark Red blue yellow sunset And I saw, and you saw, and I know, and I said And you knew, and I saw, and you loved Strawberry fields forever
Curse of the children see right through white lights on the chairs And I said, and you said, and you loved, and I seen And you know, and I loved The straw [ ] long eel slithered down the curse of today's children Strawberry fields forever
