Stalker's my whole style, |
|
and if I get caught, I'll |
|
deny, deny, deny. |
|
Today you're twenty-five |
|
I made you something fine, |
|
it's in the palm of my new hand. |
|
It's out: you're mostly |
|
what I think about, and |
|
I'm proud, I've been coasting |
|
on this single's route. |
|
But I still hear your name |
|
in wedding bells. |
|
Will I look better or |
|
will I look the same |
|
rotting in hell? |
|
You're the only |
|
proper noun I need. Hurry, |
|
My copper crown's gone green. |
|
Pull me out of this tree; |
|
I'm stuck up a branch waiting, |
|
clearly caught between |
|
two things unclear to me: |
|
Are you a female young messiah |
|
for a stowaways in dugouts? And |
|
are you what church-folk |
|
mean by 'The Good News', |
|
pulling plastic bags off heads? |
|
Or are you giving me a |
|
dirty look in the rear view, |
|
clicking the button |
|
on your U'Haul pen? |
|
Don't pretend you didn't |
|
see me coming 'round the bend, |
|
on my fixie with the chopped |
|
horns turned in, trailing |
|
behind your biodiesel Benz. |
|
Stalker's my whole style, |
|
and if I get caught, I'll |
|
deny, deny, deny. |
|
'25' Carved with a butter knife |
|
on the palm of my new hand. |
|
It's out: you're mostly |
|
what I think about. |
