neko case - dirty diamond lyrics
found these in a box at the bus stop
my names at the bottom of them
nowhere to be found
i really get around they say
so i take these sightless creatures home
then i fear them so to tremble
for i’m no mother, i
just some random defender
i remember running chest high
in the steppe gr-ss
at the dawn of man
when we got along
i remember running chest high
in the steppe gr-ss
at the dawn of man
when we got along
we raced along the ground
i chased it out of town
the sun’s the meanest, easiest target
that i know
we play a tender game
of kissing [?] tag
we slept astride our horses
[?] in their manes
my friend would touch my face
and leave a star or two
the years left constellations
of our wild language
what drove the sun away
i’m far too small to know
a [?] that’s free to march
is only [?]
what can i tell you now
it’s better way along the c-n-l
draw mosquito clouds
from the dens of hot tires for miles
i remember running chest high
in the steppe gr-ss
at the dawn of man
i remember running chest high
in the steppe gr-ss
at the dawn of man
when we got along
oh, petroleum
you’re the top predator now
starving, lover, lier
but you’re uninspired too
according to your [?]
oh, petroleum
you’re the top predator now
and i just desire
one dirty diamond
some random defender
i sold my flesh that i might die
so the world will spin
and my cubs won’t cry
i have to be the sun for them
oh, petroleum
our beautiful
but so am i
[?], looking at the sky
[?], looking at the sky
