lyrics

If we knew
other people
to hold onto
then would we know
how many others
we must let go?

So as I grow
I find the ones who
I'd like to know
And please
please forget
All of the pieces
that I have set

But when
the time it comes
your board is what I
am walking from

And she put her red dress on and she orbited the room
and she soon withdrew from the presence of the fumes
that were echoing from the mouths of everyone that she knew

And I'm not sure what we could disagree about
I feel you on the whole are on the up and up
But if you cannot meet me in the middle and concede
to give it all to me, then

Then will I
be forced to act a
way I don't like

For the sake of both of us
Don't make me feel I'm so dangerous

Because if you do I'm afraid I'll get carried away and I'll cause such a mess that the rest of the day I'll be tied to supply all that I cannot pay so please, don't leave it up to me

Twice a week
Marcus Aurelius
He comes to speak
We start out great
but he ends up boasting
about his slaves
and if
Ghengis Khan
He comes this evening
prepare to run
And don't allow
record collectors
to slow you down.

Because if they do, be afraid, they'll get carried away
and they'll cause such a mess that the rest of the day
they'll be tied to supply for what they cannot pay so please
leave it up to me.

In all her fairy tales
Red Carpet Wedding
to the prince of Wales
But then
white dress fatigue
it made her sullen
it made her weak.
