Off Science Hill is where I took a walk I heard the finches and their empty talk Off Science Hill is where I took a walk And I heard the finches in their empty talk
Pavement turned into meadow And video tape tumbleweeds And in the corner
There are elements in this day, in the day of Miami Go forth, find them in tank top Go forth searchin' in flip flops
