"Bumblebee" lyrics

"Bumblebee"

Can I engage you a while?
Can I tug on your elbow?
Can I steer you around?
And be my little sailboat

And after you've looked into
The half-lidded eyes of the wicked
Almost the most you can do
Is roll with the waves gently kicking

Evanesce, fade, disappear
Just blend into the scenery
Is that a bumblebee in your pants
Or are you just happy, or are you just happy to see me?
To see me?

Where a lunar landscape appears
Where the tide's escaping
Where the moon's a water balloon
Parallax and mistaken
With sun showers turning the road
Into your bands of silver
Where blue skies reflected in chrome
It's feeling vaguely familiar

Coalesce and fade, disappear
Into a world easier for dreaming
Almost the most you can do is
Spend most of that time just giving some of that time meaning
Some meaning
Some meaning
Some meaning

I got today's U.S.A. Today
Courtesy of the hotel
It's painterly you see detail
It's painterly you see detail

Evanesce, fade, disappear
Just blend into the scenery
Is that a bumblebee in your pants
Or are you just happy, or are you just happy I'm leaving?
Or are you just happy I'm leaving?
I'm leaving
