"Tweed" lyrics
"Tweed"
Maybe I'll get a haircut tomorrow
Maybe I'll go fly a kite instead
Maybe I'll act out all my bad dreams
Maybe I'll give up and lay in bed
Maybe I'll walk to Mississippi
Maybe I'll drive to Santa Fe
Maybe I'll take the train to New York and do the crossword on the way
Bugs are crawlin' all around me
Brush 'em off, brush 'em off
Spiders celebrate a surplus
And I have another nagging cough
Oooh the perils of the city
Ahh the dangers of the farm
Oh the pitfalls of the middle class are losing all their charm
Did you know what you wanted?
Do you know what you need?
No room for skeletons in these closets and drawers
They're full of sassafras and tweed
Oooh would you punch me in the stomach?
Ahhh would you kick me in the shins?
Well flip a coin, tell me what to do, and let me know who wins
