Very Heaven

Oh, very Heaven To be young and in your arms In the days of falling walls Very Heaven Very Heaven Still all together Before Doc slept with Jem and ran away Hope that doesn't weigh on Jem back then Everybody had a gob on 'em 17 says, take me to your leader 17 is antigravity, oh 17 says, help me find my people The ones I'll always need and never see, oh Xena Cortina and her chattering, skint Athenians Licking stamps in the dress-up box Trying everything on Trying everything on Jesus Abyssinia Never trust crushed anything Just too old to be holding court Trying everything on 17 says, feed me, feed the meter 17 is don't you say a word, boy Took aside by cellar party teacher No one knew but everybody heard, boy 17 drops every golden baton 17 is parking nose-to-nose, oh Smoking, splitting hairs and smashing atoms Chosen by the bunch of souls you chose Very Heaven
