words and music by wendy o’ sunshyne
small blue buttons dropped into a jar
single file, crooked smile
shake them up, see how noisy they are
whole and perfect when looked at from afar
oh, beguile. crazy crocodile
magnifying glass, shows us all the scars
chorus:
and you’re not what I really really want
i’m giving up up up up
so go, go do what you want.
now I know know know
know how to float and flow
someone’s always jealous of the belle of the ball
mr. trained monkey, ms. bliss junkie
silent steps behind her, push her watch her fall
your pettiness to posses her only makes you small.
red blood clot, tiny juggernaut
thorns of scorn in a dready voodoo doll.
chorus
ripe banana peels, tossed to the side
sugar lump, blurry chump
rotting intentions only gather flies
hope floats high above me, red balloon in sky blue skies
paper cup, stir and sip it up
your lack, a safety pin in my cracker jack prize
chorus
your concern for me, a script for actors on a stage
snake oil hands, folded plans
you held it far away, made me beg and beg and beg
but you can keep your charms, your distance and your pride
ants in your pants, superfluous rants.
‘cuz you’ve only been along for the thrill of the ride.
chorus
i’m like a shadow, I’m never alone
i’ve got my thoughts, slippery pebbles, moonlit stones
now I know know know
know how to float an’ flow
