"Toadstool" lyrics
"Toadstool"
I am drifting
Like the flour I'm sitting
I shake through the cold metal holes
With the chemical rise
The bread and butterflies
Float me
Where I don't knead the dough
I'll sleep in a creekbed
With a green mossy bedspread
And laugh at the stars up above
In the dew morning hours
I argue at flowers
Sing tenor
To the swift Mourning Dove
I go to a place
Where the whole human race
Is omitted from my conscious mind
Wade my toes through the tidepool
Kick my feet up on a toadstool
Maybe frolic for the rest of my days
Dance through unseen territories
Make up bedtime understories
Track my growth
By the magic moon phase
Trees bend to greet me
I wave, then I curtsy
I smile to see my old friends
But when the boughs break
It uproots and rakes
Blows me with the leaves
Back again
I go to a place
Where the whole human race
Is omitted from my conscious mind
Cut my cranium open
Repair what is broken
I just need a little rewire
Maybe then I won't cry
Or need the SSRIs
Fix me like
A blown amplifier

Hurray For The Riff Raff - "People Talkin'" Well, people, they're tryin' to tear us apart
They try and rip out my heart
Those people talkin'

Nothing for to show
She's feeling helpless
Like there's nowhere left to go
Things she set out to do
She made sure were done
She's feeling dismal
But she's not the only one
