Manfred Mann Cubist Town

The world was just the world of pollen air

I wandered 'round and 'round the busy square

I turned and floated gently upside down

And one by one the people gathered 'round

The rivers and the bridges turned to blue

The thin age of the night is creeping through

The orange sun is dying on the line

And slowly melt into the sea of wine

Good night, cubist town, good night

The day has vanished with the night

The light has vanished with the day

And the bride passed me quietly away

The table grows the evening meal's begun

The wedding song of love has just been sung

But there's to much of this, too much for me

I go outside where darkness sets me free

Good night, cubist town, good night

The day has vanished with the night

The light has vanished with the day

And the bride passed me quietly away

I thought I saw the house where you were born

A yellow house, the color of the corn

I thought I saw strange beasts out there in the sky

But music filled my mind, then they passed by

Good night, cubist town, good night

The day has vanished with the night

The light has vanished with the day

And the bride passed me quietly away

But music filled my mind, then they passed by

Good night, cubist town, good night

The day has vanished with the night

Good night, cubist town, good night

The night has vanished with the day

Good night, cubist town, good night

The day has vanished with the night

Good night, cubist town, good night
