lyrics

i am a little window bug
laughing in my little window sun
and i try to make the most
of what i got and what i don't
and baby i'm in love with everyone

i am a little rocking horse
rocking quiet back and forth
and i try to make the most
of what i got and what i don't
and i love you of course of course of course
of course of course of course

i am a little robin in my nest
my eggs are blue and red's my breast
and i try to make the most
of what i got and what i don't
and baby you're the one i love the best

she's hiding in the hyacinths, her hips in the hibiscus
she says that if i fight for her, she'd gladly be my missus
but i'll bet she says that all the time to every blue-eyed soul
and saving saddened sentiments for little baby elephants
she exposes every magic trick but i don't have to be told
that the rabbit was already in that hole

but if i know anything about myself, then i'm probably already gone
but it's not as bad as it seems, a body run by histamine
all we ever do is sing songs like paul mccartney
let it be, let it be

Fire (free streaming)
by Green Paper

the fuzz; the writing; the huge guitar in The Still Waves; when the huge drums come in for the second verse of The Waltz; the fact that Summer is the only tune in history to make me want to dance. Camellia sinensis
