	Interesting, cleverly-written song with the very insightful message that true love expresses itself not just with romantic moments, but with the mundane everyday things (such as cleaning up). The second verse is my favorite as it reminds me very much of his White Album song "Cry Baby Cry", except that song seems to be about a dysfunctional falling-apart household while this verse is the opposite, being about a smoothly-run cooperative household.

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.
