Everything's Bigger

(album: Real Hair - 2014)

The lion's just like me
He's a twin, and I was a twin
Although his twin grew up

So I must join the stage of
Awful singles hyperventilating
We head up to Vermont for a couple days

You say the name of a state when horror's underway
So you might escape back to a place where horror stays away
Still, you might escape

Me, I'm just like my wife
She's a blade and I'm a dull knife
Turned up in a bouquet

And we get red for days
Soaking through our silk and unbathed
We head up to Vermont

And I don't know whose call it was that I should share a life
With someone who resembles me and copies my speech
Down to every lisp and slur I practiced to put on
It's hard to keep a dialect when you keep changing where you come from

And that's a place where horrors fade away
So you might escape back to a place where horror fades away
Still you might escape back to a place where horrors underway
So you might escape back to a place where horror stays away
Still, you might escape

Guess I could just get set up with someone's got my given name
