Branches tower in the scene
Cool blue water swimming clean
On a sunny hillside
Red brick squares to make us strong
Framed upon a yellow wall
By a lampshade air balloon
Anxious heart, you make it bleed
I keep trying but I don't know what it needs

Call it what you want when you're pulling straws
Slipping through the cracks of a Monday morning
Bodies in the Sun, but you stay indoors
Where's your head at, boy? What'd you do that for?
Speaking of the sour taste in your mouth
Lessons from a ghost, I can see right through you
Listen to the girls when they feel left out
Put your left foot in, put your left foot out

Traffic jam, the flavours gone
Spread too thinly, held too long
Sat in your pram chair throne
God was here but now she's gone
Dinosaurs, where did you go?
Impressions of our hands in mud
Headstrong youths to smoky lungs

Call it what you want when you're pulling straws
Slipping through the cracks of a Monday morning
Bodies in the Sun, but you stay indoors
Where's your head at, boy? What'd you do that for?
Speaking of the sour taste in your mouth
Lessons from a ghost, I can see right through you
Listen to the girls when they feel left out
Put your left foot in, put your left foot out
