i go nonverbal when i smoke too much weed
i wanna say it still helps me but i couldn't tell u what i need
n what i really need is a friend, could u be that to me?
n i'm still learning how to sing
honestly
n i get so excited when u say u wanna get to know me
we trip over our words trying to show each other how we feel
n when i'm with u i feel like i can be whatever i wanna be
n i know that it's whatever but i wrote u this melody
honestly

n there's lint still clinging on me

too embarrassed to come clean

fledgling bird
broken n burnt
by the summer sun u once new as a friend
u'll never learn
the cruel kindnesses of this world
the containers of grain on the train tracks by the port
covered in bird spikes
n it's the things like that that make me cry
but fledgling bird i promise to make it right
n in ur place i swear i'll learn to
fly
so fuck the pretty words cuz talk is cheap cheap cheap
show up early for work, earn extra worms to eat
n flap my wings hard, how they beat beat beat
but can't keep
up
n it's the things like that that make me cry
but fledgling bird i promise to make it right
n in ur place i swear i'll learn to
fly, it's the things like that that make me cry
but fledgling bird i promise to make it right
n in ur place i swear i'll learn to
fly

caught in my web
i bite off ur head
yah how'd u like me now?
u taste like radiohead
n never meant
atop my pyramid i chow down
u saw an angel amid the clouds
yah how'd u like me now?
u saw an angel amid the clouds
yah how'd u like me
now?
u have been blessed
by my benevolence
to play court jester to my crown
my promised grace
perverts before ur face
but it still finds pleasure kissing my
holy ground
u saw an angel amid the clouds
yah how'd u like me now?
u saw an angel amid the clouds
yah how'd u like me--?
bow down for me
bow down
bow down for me
bow
u saw an angel amid the clouds
yah how'd u like me now?
u saw an angel amid the clouds
yah how'd u like me
now?

cute ploy
so coy
give it up
baby give it up
it could be nothing but
we could be something so
won't u give it up
n tell me what u want
cuz when our
cigarettes were touching ends, thought i could
see the smoulder reflect in ur eyes
n i cannot let go of that tenderness, two chestnut
flames in the night
playboys
with their straight noise
they can give it up
cuz we don't give a fuck
we loiter
around the corner
'hey do u have a light?'
she smiles back in reply
then our
cigarettes were touching ends, i can
see the smoulder reflect in her eyes
n i'll never let go of that tenderness, two chestnut
flames in the night, two
flames in the night

when all's said n done nothing lasts
that body u hate, the babes u've loved, the booze u drank
so pour urself another glass just to
knock it back
cuz it's the way of this world to get totally
gone
n when frank said 'well u got caught w a flat, well
how 'bout that?'
i laughed at all the years i spent just trying to
make myself a man
but when my song's done n i go dumb, i wonder
would u clap?
or zap me with ur laser gun another
passing fad
when all's said n done nothing lasts.
