There’s color everywhere

There’s white things in the air

What’s this?

I can’t believe my eyes

I must be dreaming

Wake up, Jack, this isn’t fair

What’s this?

What’s this? What’s this?

There’s something very wrong

What’s this?

There’s people singing songs

What’s this?

The streets are lined with

Little creatures laughing

Everybody seems so happy

Have I possibly gone daffy?

What is this?

What’s this?”
