• There comes, even to kings, the time of great weariness. Then the gold of the throne is brass, the silk of the palace becomes drab. The gems in the diadem and upon the fingers of the women sparkle drearily like the ice of white seas; the speech of men is as the empty rattle of a jester's bell and the feel comes of things unreal; even the sun is copper in the sky and the breath of the green ocean is no longer fresh.

• And all the world is football-shaped
  It's just for me to kick in space
  And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste
  And I've got one, two, three, four, five
  Senses working overtime
  Trying to take this all in
  I've got one, two, three, four, five
  Senses working overtime
  Trying to taste the difference 'tween a lemon and a lime
  Pain and pleasure and the church bells softly chime.

  With his furry coat and his gauzy wing,
