I regarded the world as such a sad sight    Until I viewed it in black and white   Then I reviewed every frame and basic shape   And sealed the exits with caution tape   Don’t refocus your eyes in the darkness   And don’t remember this place unless   I describe all the things that you cannot see   And we’ll unravel the mystery       Farewell all my friends in textbooks, ‘cuz I’m going home   ‘Cuz my blood cells cannot depend on the weather in photographs   There’s a light show out my window, somewhere way up there   Dear Vienna, are you singing?   Dear Vienna, are you swinging?   Dear Vienna, we were happy like the shades of May when we got carried away      I regarded the world as such a sad sight    Until I viewed it in black and white   Then I reviewed every frame and basic shape   And sealed the exits with caution tape   Don’t refocus your eyes in the darkness   And don’t remember this place unless   I describe all the things that you cannot see   And we’ll unravel the mystery          I was so far out of place   Watching those stars in outer space   Cuz I am so far from where you are      There’s a light show out my window, somewhere way up there   Dear Vienna, are you singing?   Dear Vienna, are you swinging?   Dear Vienna, we were happy like the shades of May when we got carried away
