when you come again
tryst in the treetop
8 excuses for the mother hen
I tripped in the hall
it was a miracle stall
bought us time and we
filtered out the feelings again
we schemed at the built in bar
townie authority screaming we shouldn't go far
I copied the key
the way I mimic disease
leaving the locksmith barking,
and baying on his hands and his knees
bankrupt birdhouse the crow got the word out
we've seen this all before
and I am crouching a grown man slouching
thirty armed men at the door
the truth and the tooth came out
one in the paper and the other inside of his mouth
he left with a limp and a cut on his lip
hid the morning paper and never told his wife or his kids
now we're on our own
cutting coupons 10 dollars off
a crown and a throne
discount royalty
high horse novelties
we'll pay full price 'cause it's better
than being alone
let it wave
oh let it wave
let it wave
oh let it wave
