Lyrics
That youthful crush-flight-of-fancy did not
Include the crazy bag of tricks that you got
Now I see the world, dizzy, from this well-fed height
Sorry, sometimes crumbs and litter steal the spotlight
Stay a while
I’ll keep my mind free and versatile
You find me
Beguiled by the fallen snow but still got your back, you know
Did I appear as a seraphic vision?
I guess I cast that spell by chance
Then bells rang out and my head turned to serpents
Ok, so the phone makes me shudder
And you buy all our needs and fun
But I can feed you such righteous rebellion
Stay a while
I’ll keep my hands warm and versatile
You find me
Beguiled by the fallen snow but still got your back, you know
When I’m still too scared to sing
Or make you hesitate
Just remember I took the hell off your plate
Stay a while
I’ll keep my mouth warm and versatile
You find me
Beguiled by the fallen snow but still got your back, you know
I’m dreaming that we’ll get old
And have lots of cats to hold
Make out often by the candle glow
Live on the grounds of a French chateau
Come into a lotta dough
And pay off everyone we owe
Use the rest to fight the status quo
Cross the country in a Winnebago
Learn Tango! Talk to crows!
Kick sealer ass on the ice flows
Walk the Valley of the Pharaohs
Heal our hearts as the lily tree grows
Spin a mani wheel in Paro
Stomp on grapes in Bordeaux
Read all the poets that we should know and
Make a whole lot of love before you go…
