My Focus Of Attention Is On You

if the moon above begins disintegrating
and I don't look up to do some contemplating
it's because my focus of attention is on you

if an iceberg starts to form on the equator
and I say that I'll investigate it later
it's because my focus of attention is on you

if there were rockets firing right over my head
if there were canons booming and waking the dead
if there were clangers clanging and bangers banging
I would not have a clue

if they're ringing bells and yet my ears hear no ding
and they fail to notice when a bomb's exploding
it's because my focus of attention is on you

if you said Abraham Lincoln was coming this way
and Schopenhauer and Einstein were over to stay
and you had seen Charles Wesley with Elvis Presley
I'd only answer - who ?

if they brought me fortune on a silver platter
chests all filled with gold, it really wouldn't matter
it's because my focus of attention
it's because my focus of attention
it's because my focus of attention is on you
