The air smells so sweet
nowadays it hardly rains on me
i mostly sing and can't complain but
i don't need i don't need your thunder to know that
it still rains here.
these last three now and later
sticking to my teeth
remind me to stay young and green and
i don't need don't need your lectures
on sugar and amount of duration
true life is mostly tragic but you don't know how good you have it
when you're older your will grasp it you just don't know how good you have it
i used to dream of rats and snakes and death and other things
but now i take a breath before i sleep
i don't need don't need a nightmare to know that they still live here
true life is mostly tragic but you don't know how good you have it
when you're older your will grasp it you dont know how good you have it
