The plastic world has won
A mock-up turned out to be the stronger one
The last little ship has cooled down
The last little lantern has tired
And clods of memory wheeze in the throat
Oh-oh, my defence
A reflected light of a glass eye
A funereal ball[*] of the ridiculous world
A funereal ball of the cheap world
The plastic world has won
A cardboard alarm bell triumphs
Who needs a slice of July sky?
Oh-oh, my defence
A reflected light of a sightless world
Oh-oh, my defence
A funereal ball of a glass eye
A funereal light of the ridiculous world
The plastic world has won
A mock-up turned out to be the stronger one
The last little ship has cooled down
The last little lantern has tired
And clods of memory wheeze in the throat
Oh-oh, my defence
A funereal ball of a sightless world
Oh-oh, my defence
A reflected light of a glass eye
[*] ball, as in "(small) sphere", not "dancing party".
