Splash

(album: Excuse Me - 2022)

And a little bit of sun just what the doctor ordered

And I will set me free
And I will find my pain files and press delete
And I will say something nice or I will never speak
And I should have never called you beep beep or beep
And I will take my lumps
And I will leave on purpose and come by chance
I will be the clean glass, I won't be the smudge
Grow old like a tree and water all my plants
And I will be open like a Boston bar
And I will be open like a Boston "r"
I'm at the corner store yeah I'm somewhere awful far
You could have been kind but it's whatever
And I will sink in the ground and the walls here
And I will work with the light when it falls here
Help you out of a jam if you need it
But you won't need it

You in the pool splash
That's what I'll see when I look back
Your mum's A/C was colder than a polar ice cap
I do recall that (call that)
You in the pool splash
That's what I'll see when I look back
You in the pool splash
You in the pool splash

And a little bit of sun just what the doctor ordered
And a little bit of sun just what the doctor ordered

Yeah, and I will come to life
And they will say how nice to see you come to life
And I will walk through time whichever way I like
And I will not lose that which is not mine
Yeah, and I will choose a choice
And I will reach my arm out into the void
And I will iron my shirts, and I will lose my voice
Yelling all the songs that ever brought me joy (uh)
You were flying through the canyon to come get me
On Ventura I felt like Tom Petty
Looking back now and I wasn't ready
Looking back cellophane colour memory
Alchemical experiments with potions
Always seem to end in explosions
I know that I got problems I'm hopeless
But you have your moments too

You in the pool splash
That's what I'll see when I look back
Your mum's A/C was colder than a polar ice cap
I do recall that (call that)
You in the pool splash
That's what I'll see when I look back
You in the pool splash
You in the pool splash

And a little bit of sun just what the doctor ordered
And a little bit of sun just what the doctor ordered
And a little bit of sun just what the doctor ordered
Did I learn my lessons slower than I should have?
