[Verse 1]
Look for a while at the china cat sunflower
Proud walking jingle in the midnight sun

A leaf of all colors plays a golden-string fiddle
To a double-e waterfall over my back
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]

Crying Leonardo words from out a silk trombone
I rang a silent bell, beneath a shower of pearls
In the eagle-winged palace of the Queen Chinese
