Lyrics:

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 pillars and golden axletrees and silver snuffers and all that sort of thing
'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 four hundred 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

How do you arrange a room around a baby grand piano?
In the Arabian-tented library guest room
In the two-tabled 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
And the unique stone rubbings I can decorate with giant jacks

With wicker whatnots
Oh, with wicker whatnots

In prettier prints with masses of chintz
And candy box fabrics
Or the "True Meaning of a Name"
With poem in a 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
'Cause out of the corner of my eye I saw one cherub ten cubits high

Ulyana, Phoebe, and Alan knew to say, "We're here for Lucy's Birthday
In the Rivoli Bar area lounge," but were worried they might be late
Then Lucy messaged, "My PA Ms. Gill will kindly deal with 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 Gharzi, 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
