Cloudflakes lyrics

by

Smokey Robinson


[Verse 1]
Sitting in the big black oven
What a clever place to hide
With my eyes wide open
My face is a flaming pie

[Verse 2]
Bare-naked in the kitchen
And everyone sleeping tight
The clock goes to seven
I dance but I don't know why

[Verse 3]
I'm standing in the schoolyard
Waiting for my teacher to come
She looks gently downward
And picks me up in the sun

[Verse 4]
I'm chewing cloudflakes
I'm falling apart
One when my mind aches
One for my heart

[Verse 5]
I'm making mistakes
When I'm counting stars
One when the light breaks
One in the dark

[Verse 6]
I'm standing in the shelter
Waiting for my mother to come
She left me in winter
And she'll pick me up in the fall

[Verse 7]
The ocean is friendly
The ocean is mine
Caught in my bathtub
With a fishing line

[Verse 8]
Little fishes swimming in the shallows
Little fishes driving me mad
Two more fishes to swallow
So they cannot eat me back
