Oliver Twisted - Sage Francis
Reminiscing of when I was living in fear Is he here yet? I feel sweat building on my upper back Children are under attack With every question mark When testing starts Hearts burn and stomachs knot Inner organs begin to morph in To dinnerless orphans Asking for more things to digest for Oliver But I love her You do? I guess What part, all of her? Yeah except when she tempts men You know those uncontrollable feelings and thoughts except them Now I accept when she tempts men to extend Plutonic handshakes and I'm all hung up on sex again And untrusting is she still talking to him? I'm hung up I used to be off the hook Picked up girls and read them motives like an awful book Put them down Fast but gently to maintain the grass entry level position Last century I had several decisions To make before the new millenium To secure finances As for dollars did I make a mill or any? Check the public record freedom of information Act One Scene Two Third page Fourth paragraph Fifth center sixth word seventh letter G Seems like I ain't make any And I'm stuck clutching on to my very last penny Loafer searching every crevice of the sofa Warning you not to get any closer I need some space to breathe And he's making me Shovel the snow cut the grass and rake the leaves Take these responsibilities and shove 'em These working boots weren't made for running Your landscaping business My hands are shaking hidden fists Holding a dead fish Breaking limp wrists And listening for lisps Smack speech impediments out your mouth piece I'm all alone in the force to home Killing myself with the house keys
