lyrics

Try
To hold an image in your mind’s eye
Of a fly
On a bicycle
Wearing a tie
Eating pie.

Did you manage
With my little challenge?
Did that image appear
Even though that fly’s not here?
That’s a simple illustration
Of imagination.

Can you imagine a world without imagination?
A colourless world of creative stagnation.
Without that mutation
We’d have no inspiration
Ideas in isolation
Societal fragmentation
We’d be rubbish at adaptation
And all of my rhymes would incline to the same termination.
What a vile postulation.

With no immediate sense input
I can conjure up a world in which my foot
Is King of all the Feetkind
But it’s not real – it’s only in my mind.

Can you imagine a world without imagination?
A colourless world of creative stagnation.
There’d be no education
No improvisation
No interpretation
Of our observation
We’d be slaves to temptation
And all of my shows would be strictly arranged by alphabetisation
What a vile postulation.

If it’s any consolation
We have a proliferation
Of imagination.
