Navy Sheets |
I guess we met a couple a bonafide angels |
But they all seemed kinda fat and fatigued |
But now we’re trying to match their mouths to the screams |
Match their heads to their dreams |
Everybody’s searching out the softest seat |
All dolled up for the funeral feast |
Everyone’s stabbing at the biggest piece |
Clever kids kissing on a bleak retreat |
Now I’m not really sure we were lovers |
Or if it was just some kind of car crash |
And now we’re trying to find a DNA match |
To match their heads to their hats |
Everybody’s reaching for the sharpest knife |
Legs wide open on the opening night |
Everybody’s bathing in the laser lights |
Clever kids screwing with some new device |
Sunday morning, sidewalks flattered |
Feverish in stylish tatters |
Damn, this used to seem like grammar |
I remember when it mattered |
Can’t get over what’s transpired |
Left home virgins, came back vampires |
Built it out like back scratched choirs |
Really dead or really tired |
Everybody’s coming on their navy sheets |
Everybody’s coming on their navy sheets |
Everybody wants to suck on something sweet |
Everybody’s coming on their navy sheets |
Everybody’s coming on their navy sheets |
