Lyrics:

Spider weaves a spit green sea
That tangles up and drowns the fly, poor fly
Well, he's got pneumonia just like me
But he can't swim as well as I

And I realized, as I watched him die
Near this bed of mine

There was a secret to vision
A fairy tale madness
Rise on a mercury pearl

I was stranglin' the blankets, sweatin'
Fightin' for my poor short life, poor fly
Floating infinitesimal
I felt it bloom with graceful eyes

So I said good-bye
With my future joys lying mummified

There was a secret to vision
A fairy tale madness
Rise on a mercury pearl

Steam heater hissing, grandma is kissing
Staring at my box of colored chalk
The thermometer shaking, fever is breaking
Comin' down like Jack from his big stalk

Thus my little room became the cocoon
For my senses five

There was a secret to vision
A fairy tale madness
Rise on a mercury pearl
Rise on a mercury...
I'm here to give you my world
