So... I popped over here to post my lyrics for this deadline that was a week ago and now I feel a little more educated, thanks RangerDenni. Going to put my response to your post in the main thread cough for this round, to keep your commentary your commentary, and my lyrics my lyrics, in this space. I started writing this when I was up in the skypod at the CN tower in Toronto, 447m up in the air.

Walking on Eggshells (447)
(Shadow entry)
Guest: Peruvian Canadian, Guillermo Alberto Subauste, at Pacha Sound, Toronto

Four four seven, vier vier sieben, metres above
The GO train, goes so slow, when you look at it from here

Four four seven, vier vier sieben, metres above you
I bet that's what you think is just my usual view
But my big nose is indisposed, too busy filtering air
To look down on, those ants down, those ants way down there

La gente va y viene
y uno siempre es el anfitrión y el invitado
el que se queda después de la fiesta, el que escucha todavía las voces en los rincones
Caminar sobre cascaras de huevo no es lo mismo para un aguila que para una hormiga hambrienta

447, 447 m above you
I bet that's what you think is just my usual view

Translations:
Vier and sieben are the numbers 4 and 7 in German
(Provided by Guillermo, and edited partially:) People come and go, and one is always the host and guest. The one that stays at the end of the party and hears the voices in all the corners. Walking on eggshells is not the same to an eagle than a hungry ant

One more note: GO train is Govt of Ontario train network and is spoken as the word 'go'
