[Verse 1]
Pink clouds
Hanging in the sky so low
It's the sunlight's final hour
So it's putting on a show
Through the park, I walk
Dogs bark, and lovers talk
And all of us united by that
Colour in the sky, just see those
Pink clouds
A kite is floating on the breeze
And below, a man is sleeping
Under eucalyptus trees
The sky is now his ceiling
The grass is now his bed
His face is kinda pale
His eyes are rolled back in his head
I try to shake him
It doesn't wake him
And I try not to get my hopes up
But I think I've found a
[Chorus]
Dead guy in the park
What a thrill, 'cause now
I get to call the police!
Triple 0, here we go!
"What is your emergency?"
"I'm glad you asked, I found a
Dead guy in the park
I'm happy to wait with the corpse
'Til the police arrive
A dead guy in the park!
I'll guard the body personally
You'll find us in the park beneath these
[Verse 2]
Pink clouds."
Every day must rise and fall
And the sky above reminds us
Love connects us, one and all
This man was once a child
Careless, young and free
Could he have known
The last thing he might see would be these
Pink clouds
Maybe they'll put me on the news
As the guy that found the body
Maybe I'll do interviews
And they'll ask me what I saw
I'll say "At first I wasn't sure."
Then I'll break down and say
"Sorry, it's still raw. It was a
[Chorus]
Dead guy in the park"
Now people are gathering round, but I'm like
"Fuck off, this is
My dead guy in the park!"
And I don't know his story, but I know how it ends
So I'm gonna hold him, as his soul ascends into these
[Verse 3]
Pink clouds
I hear sirens coming now
I stroke his body gently
And I kiss him on the brow
That's when he wakes up
Turns out he's not dead
He's just confused
By the dude kissing his head
The cops are nearly here
They're gonna think I'm silly
So I put my hands around his throat
And I start squeezing 'til he's dead
[Chorus]
The guy in the park
"Well, officer, I was just strolling along and saw a
Dead guy in the park."
But out of death springs new life
And at his funeral I'm chatting to his kids and his wife
[Bridge]
And they invite me round for dinner
And then we play Charades
"I waddle like a penguin but they think that I'm a spade"
And we laugh
And then the children say
"That's the first time that we've laughed since Daddy passed away"
And I say "Shh."
"Your Daddy will forever be a part of your life
And his very final words were 'Look after my wife.'"
So on a cool day in July
As we said our vows I looked up at the sky
And saw those
[Outro]
Pink clouds
Pink clouds
Pink clouds
And all of us united by that
Colour in the sky
[Spoken]
Thank you so much, let's hear it again for Richard Vaudrey on the cello! I have a serious question now, particularly for all the women in the room, and that is just to check in and... um, ask how your crotches are feeling? We had the air conditioning cranking as much as we could, but I just don't... it's not too sweaty, it's ok? No, serious question! I don't know if you're aware of this but there is a product that's been released that can help you with that problem, if you do have it. It's designed to eliminate the ancient scourge of crotch sweat. You may have seen the ads, it's like: women playing sport and the guys are standing there, and sort of repulsed by it. And then they buy these products and then suddenly the guys like them again. And it's all, happily ever after. Have you seen this? Good product, good product, fine product, no problems! I just note that it is lacking a theme song. So I've penned a suggestion, sent it to the company, and I'm yet to hear back.
