She lays in the grass
A
Gathering Snails

On two feet of string

she sits them orbiting

Her little Cosmos

Her little Cosmos

We made our way home
A
Through the wax and snow
G                D/F#
Of arcadian car wash

Hands and sponges swished

So did our tongues twist

Across the fresh wilderness

Down at the thrift shops

The dollar binned records

Paisley sun dresses; this  cowboy booted angel

With her inconsolate black eyes

Spiral of style

She catches her old eye

            G
Her little cosmos

Her little cosmos

Down there at the park

D
See the moths in the street lamps
A
See the snails tracing crop circles
G              
With their shiny wet trails
D/F#                  
These men in the moonlight
D
They say we saw the sollipsis
A
There in the dark of the night
G
In a deep anaestesia
D/F#            Em
The girl did not fight

            G
For her little cosmos
Em            G
For her little cosmos
Em            G
For her little cosmos
