about

The Creation meets The Three O' Clock meets (unwittingly) Oasis.
I plunder shamelessly in a pair of striped trousers and mod 'target' t-shirt.

lyrics

Calliope she never sees me
Or much of anything
Doesn’t know from day or night
Or if it’s fall or spring

She floats above the crowds
Head up in the clouds
So obvious how my love grows that

Even Calliope knows

Jesamine and Jacqueline
Keep stringing me along
Hyacinth and Penelope
Just tell me that I’m wrong

But nothing can compare
The girl is hardly there
Grew my hair and changed my clothes so

Even Calliope knows

Up and down Carnaby Street you’ll see her pretty face
Don’t try to talk to her
She lives her life in outer space

Calliope I know she loves me
Although she never speaks
Follow her most everywhere
For hours, days and weeks

I don’t know how I’ll kiss
A girl that don’t exist
The constable said it really shows now

Even Calliope knows

Even Calliope knows

Even Calliope knows
