Headless collars at first just crowns of jade, delivering the omniscient eye of the maker,
In the riches of luxurious coffee grounds wading, till jesters of golden chandelier have been made.
Clan of a one –eyed thousand eye counting each chariot that roams the sky.
Could be Jack's beans were magic plants with the leafy ears of an elephant?
Their faces bent like shower spouts, their minds completely turned inside out.
Some can no longer hold up their heads, they kink their windpipes like the elephant man.
Clan of a one –eyed thousand eye counting each chariot that roams the sky.
Could be Jack's beans were magic plants with the leafy ears of an elephant?
" Reach for the sky!" said the little lord, holding a tomato stake like a sword.
"Who shall be the fiery king? I want to know about everything!"
Clan of a one –eyed thousand eye counting each chariot that roams the sky.
Could be Jack's beans were magic plants with the leafy ears of an elephant?
Magic flowing up a huge stem, if plants could ponder it would be them.
Brightest of lions knowing only one thing Jack's bag of beans were sunflowers!
Clan of a one –eyed thousand eye counting each chariot that roams the sky.
Could be Jack's beans were magic plants with the leafy ears of an elephant?
