WHY?
What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
To be born is anything but this
2
The dying wish of a dinosaur's dish
3
Of no use, a shitty gift like a single slipper
4
I go diffuse in city quick like the little dipper
5
She's cute with little titties and a sense of humor
6
But to tell you the truth, sir
7
I pity the poor fool, her
8
Fruitless in a holster and clueless in a kiss
9
I'm older than death
10
Vulgar with unfresh breath
11
During sex I might put us in some joke positions
12
But it's scary always how we end up in missionary
13
Like the daring men who fight to submission
14
Barely conscious there to care about the split decision
15
Your sour thoughts you wield at me
16
You wring out your melon
17
But it yields only drops like an unripe lemon
18
All a man can understand is your bad intentions
19
The less you talk the more you draw and seal and ending
20
Keep leafing through the glossary
21
Sitting there puffing weed
22
Telling me repeatedly all the things you want to be
23
The thug's just a boy once my money in the bags
24
Is your love but a ploy like Bugs Bunny in drag?
25
I leave my lungs open, exposed to the whole crew
26
While you sneak a bump and smoke cloves in the coat room
27
Itching like a local ho
28
Wishing like Pinocchio
29
The wind is at my back anew
30
But still I feel the lack of you
31
Oh, you were so heavy in my heart, boo
32
That soon no longer could my true heart hold you
33
And like the angular Etruscan tchotchke my mom got me
34
At the Met gift shop in '92
35
Tearing from the brown paper bag I kept it in when it was new
36
After I left it overnight when it was wet with dew
37
It sounds blue and shitty
38
But of course kid, like the little skinny bronze horse did
39
You fell through
40
You were like a buoy I put down in open ocean
41
But with no cross staff and no compass in my possession
42
And too far out for a lighthouse to provide discretion
43
How could I presume that you'd divine direction
44
Must have patience
45
Accept no imitations
46
Take no paper hearts and fucking hate carnations
47
Though my home is vacant
48
Yeah I'm lonesome while I wait
49
That's no open invitation made to hope we make acquaintance
50
The long walks home from the laundromat
51
In Pop-Pop's Holden Caulfield hat
52
Alone, lost for certain
53
Dry and pent
54
Dead bent like a merchant ivory gent
55
Yes, to yet get a spouse and kids
56
Have a house full
57
But I'm hard to be around
58
And sterile as a roused mule
59
Preemptive nostalgia of the possible but doubtful
60
Preemptive nostalgia of the possible but doubtful
61
And always something reminds me of you
