lyrics

Like the cormorant
In Autumn, northern bound,
Making overtures
In sight and sound.

We're half-finished books,
Set to impress.

It augurs well,
It lies down to reason;
Join me in my midnight garden.
It augurs well,
It lies down to reason...

Where do the ducks go when the pond is frozen?
Where do the ducks go?

I'm going to party like it's 1599;
The purposes aren't cross,
The pauses are sublime.
For this othersome lass,
This sadrigal lad,
The ticker tampers with
Maps and plans...

We're half-finished books,
We're found objects.

It augurs well,
It lies down to reason;
Join me in my midnight garden.

It augurs well,
It lies down to reason;
Join me in my midnight garden.

Where do the ducks go when the pond is frozen?
Where do the ducks go?
