The Ballad of the Wickers

The prettiest songs for the prettiest girls

All on a midsummer night,

Here is a rose the size of the world

It blooms when the moment is right.

I'll meet you on Classen, I'll meet you in Bricktown,

Or down south in the stadium lights;

So bring all your friends, we'll play until when

It's over late in the night.

And the moon shines down on her paper crown

And she'll dance to the song that we sing,

Sweet as a kiss, it's gonna be like this

Forever as the guitars ring.

Each town has a star with stars in his eyes,

We see them shine one by one;

But the dreams are reclaimed, they end like a game.

In a land where nothing gets done.

And each Peter Pan must turn into a man

And wake up and face the new day,

And the echoes that roam will find here no home,

They can come but they never can stay.

The prettiest songs for the prettiest girls

All on a midsummer night,

Here is a rose the size of the world

It blooms when the moment is right.
