lyrics

I fell in love with a boy with pink eyes,
On a morning silent and still,
We sailed upright on a cloud,
Because I fell in love,
With the concept of time.

With a bang, a bang, a bang
With a bang, a bang, a bang

Because I'm waking up to reality,
To bird songs and coffee rings,
Because I'm waking up to reality,
To bird songs and coffee rings,
Two coffee rings.

The news makes me sad,
With the rings on it's tail,
It calls back the past,
Like the tigers and the whales.

With a bang, a bang, a bang
With a bang, a bang, a bang

Because I'm waking up to reality,
To bird songs and coffee rings,
Because I'm waking up to reality,
To bird songs and coffee rings,
Two coffee rings.

Because I'm waking up to reality,
To bird songs and coffee rings,
Because I'm waking up to reality,
To bird songs and coffee rings,
Because I'm waking up to reality,
To bird songs and coffee rings,

Because I'm waking up to reality,
To bird songs and coffee rings.
