The Clouds Are Full Of Wine (Not Whiskey Or Rye)

Captain Beefheart · Other Songs - Captain Beefheart

The clouds are full of wine

Not whiskey or rye

'n the sky is full of bluebrains,

Bluejays, mermaids

Bluebrains, bluejays, bluebirds, mermaids

bluejays, bluebirds, rainbows

'n the night is full of rhinestones,

Pinecones, telephones

'n the sky is full of rhinestones, pinecones, telephones

Wolfhowls, milkcows

Shadows to some hows

'n the clouds are full of wine

Not whiskey or rye

'n the sky is full of bluebrains,

Baboons, rhinos, fools 'n buffoons

'n my eyes are full of bloodbones,

Snowcones, serenaders 'n sen-n-n-oritas

'n so on...

Melodies that go on, go on,

Go on, go on, go on, go on,

Go off, go off, go off, go off
