about

I wrote this track around autumn 2008ish? It's cute anyway.

lyrics

I tried not to wait at the gate for you whilst
My behaviour could bait this occasion too rich to last
I weaved through brash displays of charming invitation
But this hoo-ha was nothing more than in my way

The keen were too lean for my teeth and my tongue

I reserved the roof to prolong the assumption
This will not prevail so well without caution
We have an order, Sir, for a man in your name
To let this loaf go stale, Sir, would be a dreadful waste and shame

The keen were too lean for my teeth and my tongue
Palm tight stroke hair past ear drew near and struck dumb

This pass lasts long and lingers
As long as we dare to declare with our...
Sinking warm and smiling wrapped in quilts in these deck chairs
You arrived just in time to save me shame

The keen were too lean for my teeth and my tongue
Palm tight stroke hair past ear drew near and struck dumb
Some nights we see the sky through its shades in vain
With whips of cream from jets of ships that can't fly
