Set out on a laugh less day
Like a troupe of clowns
Peekin' out of a show man's car
Through cabbage town
You feel a cold wind blow
Through your open mind
The end is about to start
So you shut it hard
As the weather girl predicts
Conducting the clouds with her stick
The day will be clear 'n' funny
Before it rains
Written in water
Yeah, it's bound to disappear
Written in water
Down the crater of your ear
As long as the flavor lasts
In chewing gum
As long as we float around
This golf ball sun
The light to replace the day
Is ten shades of gray
A kiss removes the skin
Shows you where you've been
Under the ultra-violet ray
A rule every fool obeys
Hold up your name in fire
Before it rains
Written in water
Yeah, it's bound to disappear
Written in water
Written on a wave of fear
Written in water
Yeah, it's bound to disappear
Down the velvet
Crater of your ear
Yeah, written in water
It's bound to disappear
Written in water
Written on a wave of fear
Written in water
It's bound to disappear
Down the velvet
Crater of your ear, yeah
Written in water, yeah
