Lyric Amphibian
On to the next dream we run
But still I feel like I ve been stung
With all the phrases I ve been sung
All the puppets I ve hung among
I can t forget their stupid eyes
Their vague attempts to patronize
The very nonsense I despise
While sizing up their pig sty s prize
Amphibian baby, I hardly know your name
But ever since you came in me
I haven t been the same
You ve got your certain method
Time is up your sleeve
Old age crawls inside your bod
And waits for me to leave
I must have left my keys somewhere
I must have left my drink somewhere
I must have left my drugs somewhere
I must have left my clothes somewhere
I must have left my flesh somewhere
I must have left my bones somewhere
I must have left my soul somewhere
Don t bother to count, the money s all there
Amphibian baby, I ve dealt with you before
Your gills and pills won t pay my bills
I m showing you the door
The rain is beating harder
The fabric that we weave
Blow my cover of a grotesque fish
And waits for me to leave
I need some words, I just made this up, I can t be sure.....
It s me in that picture....
There I was, out here....
Wrote me a letter, so many letters.....
It all seems so long ago...
But still I feel like I ve been stung
With all the phrases I ve been sung
All the puppets I ve hung among
I can t forget their stupid eyes
Their vague attempts to patronize
The very nonsense I despise
While sizing up their pig sty s prize
Amphibian baby, I hardly know your name
But ever since you came in me
I haven t been the same
You ve got your certain method
Time is up your sleeve
Old age crawls inside your bod
And waits for me to leave
I must have left my keys somewhere
I must have left my drink somewhere
I must have left my drugs somewhere
I must have left my clothes somewhere
I must have left my flesh somewhere
I must have left my bones somewhere
I must have left my soul somewhere
Don t bother to count, the money s all there
Amphibian baby, I ve dealt with you before
Your gills and pills won t pay my bills
I m showing you the door
The rain is beating harder
The fabric that we weave
Blow my cover of a grotesque fish
And waits for me to leave
I need some words, I just made this up, I can t be sure.....
It s me in that picture....
