lyrics
I know you, so familiar
Pretty fruit on your finger
Are you sewn to that silver,
Are you down with common law?
A heart is bold when you wake it,
but its loud when you break it
Keep your wings in your pockets
or we’re gonna make some noise
Holler out if you want me, baby
Holler out, baby bird
I’ll bite off a melody and then feed you the words!
From the top of the tree line,
hear the sound of the slow grind
Build a nest on a fault line,
it shakes you to the ground
Keep your cool, keep your distance
Disregard my insistence
Mother nature’s persistance
commits us to the sky
Come for tea, come for coffee, baby
Be my guest, be my doll
But you’ll leave before morning
Mama sleeps here alone
Pretty fruit on your finger
Are you sewn to that silver,
Are you down with common law?
A heart is bold when you wake it,
but its loud when you break it
Keep your wings in your pockets
or we’re gonna make some noise
Holler out if you want me, baby
Holler out, baby bird
I’ll bite off a melody and then feed you the words!
From the top of the tree line,
hear the sound of the slow grind
Build a nest on a fault line,
it shakes you to the ground
Keep your cool, keep your distance
Disregard my insistence
Mother nature’s persistance
commits us to the sky
Come for tea, come for coffee, baby
Be my guest, be my doll
But you’ll leave before morning
Mama sleeps here alone
