Baby Mosquito
Baby mosquito, you hardly got time
Baby mosquito, you're not a lover
In summer nights it's just hard
With the lights and the trees
Got you down on your knees

Oh baby, it's hard to believe
From the swamp under leaves
That one day you would cry

And baby mosquito, beware of dragon flies
Baby mosquito, flash back to past lives
When you were frozen in amber so deep
There was peace, it's a waiting disease

And baby, it's hard to believe
From the ground under trees
That one day you would cry

And baby mosquito, why don't you aspire?
And baby mosquito, why don't you make them alive?

'Cause after you're gone
There'll be blood to be drawn from the sea
And the fire flying knights
And the bats without sight who believe
Oh, malarial nightmares
That keep you from sleep next to me
Got me down on my knees

And baby, it's hard to believe
From the swamp under leaves
That one day you would cry
