Helium Hearts

(album: Dark Days / Light Years - 2009)

Got my nose nose nose to smell the ground
Eyes eyes eyes that look around
Teeth to chew and feet to kick
And with a mouth I can forge a relationship
But chin chin chin what do you bring?
Throat and mouth can make me sing
Hands to hold the phone that rings
But chin chin chin what do you bring?

It's cool to find what keeps us all together
It's fun to learn what everything is for

Ears hear distant sounds
Fingers built the castle mounds
Hair keeps me warm on winters night
So the tongue can taste the Vegemite
But chin chin chin what do you bring?
Lungs of air can make me sing
Fingers hold the wedding ring
But chin chin chin what do you bring?

It's cool to find what keeps us all together
It's fun to learn what everything is for

So here goes the chin's response
Should have phoned me in advance
Said I was built to hold a grin or a mile-wide smile for smouldering
So chin chin chin, that's what you bring
Lungs of air can make me sing
Fingers hold the wedding ring
And the chin chin chin keeps us smiling

It's cool to find what keeps us all together
And now we know the chin holds up a smile
