i don't have a lot of time to spend with you
i don't have horses to boil down for glue
i don't have a lot
but what i've got i'll grunge it up
i've got a nice, big back yard
i've got some work & it's not that hard
i had a job
but i went & fucked it up again
feed me skittles & beer
soap me, make me crystal clear
wax me
oh wait, i went & waxed me up myself
all flesh is grass & grass is green
all the pretty things i've never seen
like the waves drowning you on Canon Beach
you're out of reach
oh, the floods in my brain & the rocks in my shoes
all the pretty sights my eyes will never view
like the limbs that hold you up at Angel Oak
we're out of rope
like the air i breathe & the gas i pass through
all flesh is grass
but grass is too
