Lyrics
You're not bloody swab paradise
Your golden stars lick to stick
A world with frogs and magic tricks
And floating logs and scissor kicks
And lemonade and sweaty sex
Hug me like I gave you checks
And kiss me like the upper crust
Tell me things to make me blush
Champagne bottle, bon voyage
A souvenir garage
A melody to make me smile
Not that you've been gone awhile
A purple medal, eighth place
A battler in a trophy case
Silences for little Ace
Supported like an ankle brace
Not bloody cotton swabs and lies
Stolen checks and empty eyes
You're a county fair in July
A Canadian field of wild rye
You kiss me like potted plants
Bite me like fire ants
Touch me like an old stamp
Olive oil and seven lamps
Not stolen cash, I'll pay you back
Bloody paradise attack
You're Sunday at the puppy track
In time to take the long way back
Sweet as the apple of Peru
The inklings of the eastern zoo
Not bloody cotton swabs and lies
Stolen checks and empty eyes
I'd rather
You are the blood flowing through my fingers
(That's what I meant to say
Blood in my fingertips
I couldn't tell you that any other way)
You're all through the soil
And up in those trees
(You're all the blood that I may see in you
That I see in
You, you're the blood for me
And you're all earth, yo)
Yo, you wake me to the smell of butter
Sunlight shone through wooden shutters
Naked sex and cuffed breasts
Early morning back to test
Pouring rain and rubber suit
Cotton socks and rubber boots
A sprint across the parking lot
'Cause that day we were unprepared
Dried out socks along the stairs
Sound of rain and draining gutters
Lightning, seven seconds thunder
A mild snack like evening hunger
DVDs and VCRs
Fish tanks and jelly jars
The storm passes, blue Mars
Summertime's a move
Safety belt in summer cars
Lightning bugs to die in jars
The air conditioner saving grace
Grass stains and flushed face
Refreshing like a glass of milk
Her shaving legs were like silk
Kiss me like a bon voyage
A secret souvenir collage
Overalls and water parks
T tops and baby sharks
Dragon rolls and frozen juice
Making out in photo booths
A lovely Saturday night alone
Full of films and bacon pies
Not cotton swabs and bloody lies
I'll pay you back in plastic eyes
You are the blood flowing through my fingers
(You're the blood in my fingertips
The soil beneath
The trees
Electricity, light, sound and flight)
All through the soil
And up in those trees
(You are the words with which I write
You
Are solitude
You are electricity and flight)
