Spectre animals
You're expected
Always welcome
Our familiar animus
You're expected
You're so welcome

Always welcome
Oh...
Our celestial bard
Smiling down on cloud
Raining heaven shards
Cruising through the stars
Oh our spacious friend
Help us to pretend
Fill us up with hope
Bring us back our ghosts!

Modern Archaeologists
02:45

now that they've dug it all up
a spoonful at a time
gonna map it with lasers
and preserve it for all time
modern archaeologists they use the tools
modern archaeologists they're no fools
trying to solve a puzzle
and put together the rhyme
did the story of poets
really happen at that time
modern archaeologists they use the tools
modern archaeologists they're no fools
reconstructing history
a piece at a time
digging through the layers
no telling what they'll find
lower and lower they go
now that they've dug it all up
a spoonful at a time
gonna find a new place to investigate
and see what they can find
modern archaeologists they use the tools
modern archaeologists they're no fools
modern archaeologists they use the tools
modern archaeologists they're no fools

Newly Ghoulin'
02:27

Wandering these halls
Stepping through paintings
Like the ghoul of the grounds
No other un-damned around
Wish for shroud of sweet sleep
Only company's hinges' squeak
Oh the floorboards moan
Getting so bored alone
Been wandering these moors and knolls
Looking - are there other poltergeists?
A lover's maze in a knot
Maybe we've all gone to rot
Wandering these halls
Stepping through mirrors
Some ghoul of the grounds
No other un-maimed around
I've been wandering these moors and knolls
Are there any other poltergeists?
A lover's maze in a knot
We've all gone to rot

I wish I could be like Albert Lin
And have all of his enthusiasm
Hangin' out of choppers in the Middle East
And finding Mayan ruins with the laser beams
Go Albert Go!
I wish I could be like Albert Lin
And have all of his enthusiasm
Helpin' solve mysteries at Blick Mead
And diving next to Varna in the Black Sea
Go Albert Go!
...
I wish I could be like Albert Lin
And have all of his enthusiasm
Flying drones high above the trees
Mapping out top-ology
Finding more lost cities
Albert Lin

Cemetery Stroll

I'm your cemetery guide
Madame's mausoleum on your left side
All the tulips are blooming, resting
Lying quietly near
"Though you never possessed
Me / I have belonged
To you since
The beginning of time"
I'm your ghost tour guide
Monsieur's angels and benches beckon
There are daisies, lambs, and baskets
No we don't lack in visits
I'm your cemetery hostess
Thank you for being our warm guest
You're our an-gelic future
We're waiting with daisies
We're waiting
"Though you never possessed
Me / I have belonged
To you since
The beginning of time"
.
poet Mina Loy in the Chorus:
('Three Moments in Paris:'
Though you had never possessed me
I had belonged to you since the beginning of time...)
