she's too thin
she's too thin
today all I know is; death comes to all, a wall is in the hall, my friend is boring, snoring? adoring? and people watch too much TV, see me, dee dee dee (singing now) how?
we leave
this world alone, like a cone, prone, dis-bone, with tone,
so who gives a fuck about the things we see/own.
(pause)
and G didn't
ask S out
and G didn't ask S out
ask her out
I was sitting, knitting? , no not really, I was sitting in our car waiting to pick him up - tup tup dee tup
he came
out, she came out
he saw her, I saw her
she is thin (pin) slim (grin?), is she thin?
twiglet thin, skinlet thin
Bony Marony, skinny as a stick of macaroni (tubular?)
(I mean like spaghetti?)
and he didn't ask her out
he saw her. he smiled. I laugh - la la dee la dee da
let me take you back (whack your sack, lack your knack, tack your back)
I saw him
looking, I saw her watching him watching - eye eye
She blossomed - like a film
fast forward - whoosh (push-ee?)
like a poppy (doppy, loppy, foppy?)
bloom (voom) - opening up - tup tup dee tup
like in an arty-party gardening television programme
not real time, but fast-time, but not like a cartoon girl
and he didn't
ask her out
oh oh oh… we laugh - la la dee la dee da
I said to
him - I know about affairs of the heart (part-organ part-mind)
love and stuff
birds and bees
affairs of the heart
you need courage
courage = heart
and he didn't
ask her out
he laughed - la la dee la dee da
16 year old grin (skin?) lifted up at the left side
I laugh - la la dee la dee da
no - he answered
he is pinking
(linking?) up - tup tup dee tup
face with grace turning pink (like Indian ink)
sweet sweet youth (truth)love/shove creatures
(I think she is too thin)
she'll break in (1+1=) 2 if held too tight
he laughed - la la dee la dee da
