Mane On Its Lion

(album: Samples For Handsome Animals - 2008)

One two three
One two three four five
Six seven
Six seven eight nine ten
One two three four five
Six seven eight nine ten

The sap with its tree
The street with its cracks
The cap in its knee
The spine in its back
The sleep with its talk
The door with its stuck
The bee with their walk
The mud with its muck

The salt on your skin
The laugh in your grin
Parades here today
Oh, won't you look my way

The sleeves with its coat
The breathe with its lungs
The lump in its throat
The song when it's sung
The birds and their nest
The run with its sweat
Teens with their sex
The sea with its wet

The curls in your hair
The truth or a dare
It's a circus in my veins
Oh, won't you look my way?

Cats with their claws
Windows with their look
The men with their paws
And the words in their books
The shell with its snail
The the heat from the stove
The ship with its sail
A child when they grow old

Etch-a-Sketches with their wrists
Bodies in bed, oh won't you sleep in mine?
One two three four five
Six seven eight and nine
Oh won't you stay awhile?

Teeth with their gums
Shoulders with their blades
Hands with their guns
The dark in its cave
The mane on its lion
Tears with their crying
The born its baby
The shrug with its maybe and

Oh, the heart
Oh, the heart
The heart with its seams

The bumble with its bee
The sun with its wings
The cup with its tea
Root with its cling

Love when it's marred
Love when it starts
Your bones with their white
Your blue with their eyes
Your bones with their white
Your blue with their eyes
One two three four five
Six seven eight and nine

Oh, won't you look my way?
