NARRATION:
Things are looking up
For the young boy
And his willow tree
A box of letters to explore
And a budding friendship
With the girl next-door
Though broken hearts need all the more
Dark eyes and carnival lights
My heart is on a carousel high
Hard times left somewhere behind
With Holly Yeong here by my side
Magpies and cartwheel cries
I feel head over heels tonight
Dark eyes, a milk-carton smile
She's what I’ve been missing all this time
Whisper softly
How she looks so odd
People talking
She’s not what you thought
They don’t have the time
For kids that don’t all look alike
But we don’t pay no mind
Just a couple of magpies
Dark eyes and carnival lights
A world-away in every sigh
Hard times are still burning bright
For Holly Yeong here by my side
Starlight, we’re spending our nights
With Marvin Martian, Rainbow Bright
Dark eyes they harbor a kind of
Torment she can’t even describe
Whisper softly
How she acts so queer
Better off, she’d be
To up and disappear
They don’t have the time
For kids that don’t all look alike
But we don’t pay no mind
Just a couple of magpies
No they don’t have the time
For kids that don’t fall into line
We see eye-to-eye
Just a couple of magpies
