Xtc lyrics : "Burning With Optimism's Flames"

Never seen her glowing
all that bright she's throwing
like some aurora

from her head it's growing
reaching to the ground and all around
like a Navaho blanket


Never heard her singing
now she's gently ringing

like copper wind chimes
what on earth is bringing up this stream
the cat who got the cream is licking her lips

and smiling like her Cheshire cousin
She claims she's found a way to make her own light
all you do is smile, you banish the night


She says she's burning with optimism's flames, away away
she says she's burning up all her guilts and shames, away away

she says she's burning with optimism's flames, away away
she says she's burning up


Now you see I'm smiling
back to juvenile'ing
I learnt her lesson

in like flint and styling
all the world is neatly curled around my littlest finger


I can't stop this grinning
so $$#ume I'm winning
threw pessimism

in the air it's spinning
crashing to the floor and nevermore
will it lure me away with sweets

and shiny things just like a magpie

Now every bird and bee just fuel the fire for me

now every closing door just fans the flames some more

(Now I'm thinking okay)

(I'm turning night into day)
