Say you're like a tree or a bus stop
With your hands by your side
Let's say you're like a field of tulips
Cheap gold flowers in the sky
If the cavalry comes, is it really no surprise?
Count the calorie cops, I'm allowing alibis
Drag the shine off your still and leave me
It's raining outside
Catch your life like the strange and different
I don't want lullabies
Paralysed on parade and ready to drop, you know
Amazed and a mess, you may just stop me and go
Well, he said he was a vegetarian
Well, there's animals in water
Here come the calorie cops, is it really no surprise?
And if the cavalry comes, I'm allowing alibis
Catch your life like the strange and different
Go one word at a time
Can't you hear the bells ringing?
Get your hands off my sky
In a place where the words all just fall apart
With the sound of a stutter and mutter in your heart
Clock the spokes off your wheel and stay for just a while
Put your hat in a bag, I haven't once seen you smile
Say you're like a tree or a bus stop
