<poem style="border: 1px solid #8eb6d4; background-color: #0b0b14; padding-left: 1em; padding-right: 3em; border-radius: 10px; width: fit-content">
Rains of fish and rains of frogs
Arias sung by mongrel dogs
Whispers from the desert stones
Divinations in lizard bones

Something beyond is reaching out to you
Something beyond is reaching out
''Yeah''

Disks that stretch into cigars
Angels buy drinks in skid row bars
Virgin Mary winks from the sky
Trees twist into secret signs

Something beyond is reaching out to you
Something beyond is reaching out

''(Strange)'' We think our lives are real
''(Strange)'' Amusement parks, our business deals
''(Strange)'' Stranger still our empty lives
TV replacing kids and wife
''(Strange)'' Lives consumed with soapy talk
Lives lived in fear of taking a walk

Oh, the real world is bizarre enough for me
Oh, the real world, bizarre enough for me

We're drifting in the waiting room
Call it real, but call me real soon
The world is living, Gaia's at hand
Hear her laughing in earthquake land

Something beyond is reaching out to you
Something beyond is reaching out
Something beyond is reaching out to you
Something beyond is reaching out
Reaching out</poem>
