Lyrics

Moonlight on the water,
Sun light on my face,
You and me together,
We are in our place,
The gods are in the heavens,
The angels treat us well,
The oracle has spoken,
We cast the (perfect) spell,

Now it begins - let it begin,
Cleanup Time,
(Show those mothers how to do it),

The queen is in the counting home,
Counting out the money,
The king is in the kitchen,
Making bread and honey,
No friends and yet no enemies,
Absolutely free,
No rats aboard the magic ship,
Of (perfect) harmony,

Now it begins,
Cleanup Time,
(Show those mothers how to do it),

However, far we travel,
Wherever we may roam,
The centre of the circle,
Will always be our home,

The gods are in the heavens,
The angels treat us well,
The oracle has spoken,
We cast the (perfect) spell.
