glow worm - the handsome family lyrics

up the snowy spires
where the air is thick as gl-ss
once a year the cold mist clears
you can see inside the earth
high in that crystal palace
ive built a sailing ship
mastered wheel of polished br-ss
sails of gold and silk
i pyte the engine steam
i set for long citations
i consulted dusty maps
said careful, care the glaciers
never in, were never in
hearing through my scope
i sail deep into the hollows
deep inside the earth
i travelled a boiling river
through streams of mercury
under these volcanoes
and the roots of ancient trees
underneath stalact-tes
i lit phosphorous lamps
sparks snapped into the air
and coiled up the mist
i watched enormous birds
diving through the slate
as i stood upon the ground
in my oil skin cap and cape
at last, my anchor caught
and echoed through the stone
as i climbed and old broke ladder
pile through the globe
and up above i saw it
a glow worms little light
and i reached out and caught it
in the center of the night
tightly in my fist
i held that glowing worm
deep down in the hollows
i held the center of the world
