The Fiery Furnaces Follow

Emma was walking with Mandeep and Jingjing
On the second day of spring
Emma was walking with Mandeep and Jingjing
On the second day of spring

She said she was sick of her porch pillows
And golden axletrees and silver snuffers
And all that sort of thing

â€~Cause out of the corner of her eye
She saw one cherub ten cubits high

You can immolate all those oxen
You can sacrifice so many sheep
You can immolate all those oxen
You can sacrifice so many sheep

You can be surrounded by your
400 pomegranates and your bright brass shovels
But you still can't hardly sleep

When out of the corner of your eye
You see one cherub ten cubits high

Oh, how do you arrange a room
Around a baby grand piano
In the Arabian tinted library guest room
In the two table dining room art gallery?

And here's one for your party room
An emergency cigarette behind glass
An emergency cigarette behind glass

On a sliding slack rack hangs the Calcutta necklace
With a unique stone rubber duck
I can decorate with giant jacks
With wicker whatnots, oh, with wicker whatnots

And prettier prints with masses of chintz
And candy box fabrics
Or the true meaning of a name

With the poem in the frame
Where blue means fair, pink rain
Purple variable conditions

Give me mirror magic in the maxi mood
And I'll throw away my Hollywood chin band

â€~Cause out of the corner of my eye
Saw one cherub ten cubits high

Ulyana, Phoeba and Alan knew to say
We're here for Lucy's birthday
In the Rivoli bar area lounge
But we're worried they might be late

Then Lucy messaged
"My PA Ms. Gill will kindly deal
With all your queries between 6:30 and 8"

Unless out of the corner of your eye
You see one cherub ten cubits high

She was accepting cards and small gifts
Before the photos between 9 and 11
She was accepting cards and small gifts
Before the photos between 9 and 11
When Ghazi, Ovi, Roger and Rachel
Presented her with something that just sent her to heaven

One cherub ten cubits high
That she could see out of the corner of her eye
