makes me want to cry
when i look out of the dirty window
sun in my eyes
and it goes right through to
your eyelids too
close your eyelids very tight
in the dark you will see
rings white loops and dots
that's what it looks like for me
have a sunburn on my nose and i donno why
fall down on a busy bus
and then start to cry
close your eyelids very tight
in the dark you will see
rings white loops and dots
that's what it looks like for me

to be mysteriously nice

i have a birthmark that's so boring
there are so many songs for that
every short story i've ever read
is about a birthmark on your head
that's why i have a strawberry
that's why i do instead
that's why i have a strawberry
on my head
every short story i've ever read
is about a birthmark on your head
that's why i have a strawberry
that's why i do instead
that's why i have a strawberry
on my head

sailing the seven seas
pigtails and dungarees
stingrays that come to touch your hands
polish them clean and take away all the sand
komodo dragons in photographs
capybaras in bubble baths

it is so warm for october
yellow leaves yellow leaves
some and the sidewalk
but most on the trees
library gardens
pumpkin seeds pumpkin seeds
some people think that
dandelions are weeds
it is so warm for october
jack-o-lantern jack-o-lantern
little bat who shines a light
your arms hug me so tight
that it has never been
this warm in october

tetherball is a sport that you play
two people on either sides
tetherball is a sport that you play
two people on either sides of a pole
their days are so expansive
so much time is clear
their days are so expansive
there could be anything
tied to that string
tetherball is a sport that you play
wrap a rope around a pole
my day is so expansive
so much time is clear
my day is so expansive
i'm watching people play
tetherball tetherball

i want to live with you
i want to do what you do
i want to drink glue
i want to live in your shoe
i wanted to live under your pillow
i wanted to live in your house
i wanted to always be there
like a crumb and like a mouse

my african violet thrives
when i go to my boyfriend's house
for a few days
it likes to be thirsty
the bottom of it's leaves go purple at night
