You, misleading appearances,
This is not a joyful garden,
I will never have time enough,
Too many lives in one to live.
You, misleading appearances,
This is not a peaceful Eden.
Hoodoo me with a kiss, hoodoo me with a kiss.
Cornucopias full of sounds,
Nacreous shells whispering dreams,
Butterflies dancing on a gleam.
Beautiful overflowing cream.
You, misleading appearances,
This is not a joyful garden,
Hoodoo me with a kiss, hoodoo me with a kiss.
You, misleading appearances,
This is not a joyful garden,
I will never have time enough,
Too many lives in one to live.
You misleading appearances,
This is not a peaceful Eden.
