"Can I Bring This Bloom Inside?" lyrics
"Can I Bring This Bloom Inside?"
I heard from out the window
A cooing in the trees
Of a tingly ignition
I was swept off by my feet
Sweeping cleanly
Through blue stony streets
Songs hit my ears, my eyes
And my legs rolled mindlessly
And oh, there was flapping
A creaking unwrapping
And oh, there was chirping
The pink was unpacking
Signs of life so bright
They burned a hole in me
And burned deeper
I sat down to cooing from the trees
Coo, coo, coo, coo, coo
Coo, coo, coo, coo, coo, coo, coo
Deeper in debt
For my legs to sweep me here
For eyes to drink it deep
Deeply filling my large lungs
To blow flower's seeds
Could I bring this bloom inside for
For my friends to see?
Would my bough break
And my cooing kids fall from the tree?
Can I take the fruit that I produce
To my friends' feast?
Can I bring this bloom inside
For my friends to see?
Would my bough break
And my kids fall from the tree?
Can I take the fruit that I produce
To another's feast?

String the sinner by his wings

Silver Jews - "Smith & Jones Forever" Are you honest when no one's looking?
Can you summon honey from a telephone?
They sat there with their hooks in the water
And their mustaches caked with airplane glue
Oh, come let us adore them,...
Mount Eerie - "I Hold Nothing" Your love
Swells and pounds me
I know nothing now that I know you
My face goes blank
My eyes go open gates
And the world can go (in them)
And the world can stay and make us wealthy
And take away
So,...
Bonnie "Prince" Billy - "A Minor Place" I've been to a minor place
And I can say I like its face
If I am gone and with no trace
I will be in a minor place
Well I put the shoes in line
Separate the women mine
As we do what we do fine
