lyrics

When you were up frying something like Cracker Jacks
All full of vigor to show me how you do it
Is it the left handle that I run?
Quality over quantity seems to be key around here
And I’ve misplaced my copy
Guess I’m headed for a bad burn

Tell me something else I’m wrong about
Line a shelf with all your growing doubts
To keep the wax paper on

Climbing the stairs, literally on my knees and hands
Medicine I don’t need is running through me
But I’m dizzy enough to smile
Beams of light shooting from my eyes
Lightning dodges, hey look, my hands are shaking
And I’m not sure which way to turn

Tell me something else you’re sore about
Pardon me, because I’m headed out
So leave the wax paper on and on

I didn’t mean to let you down
I didn’t mean anything at all
It turns out after all these years
I’m addicted to hanging around

Next time you’re here I’ll be slightly paralyzed
Waiting on someone ambiguous and faithful
Who has me locked down in GPS
Every day filled with acrobats
All full vigor to show me how they do it
And I’m all too eager to learn

Tell me something else you’re cold about
I’m not afraid because I’m holed up now
I’ll leave the wax paper on and on
