lyrics

“I did nothing of the sort!” I exclaimed in a miserable retort to the grievance my future self levied, with my conscience and albatross still growing heavy. I should have been a pair of wire strippers bouncing across the shop room floor. And I’d call it a sin, but I don’t think a peach this sour was one the tree of knowledge bore. I have nothing to report! I’m honing my edge and holding down the fort. An object at rest, I’m doing my best to suppress the waking pounding in my chest. Oh yes. I should have been a pair of shiny forceps careening across the operating room floor. I’d call it a sin, but I don’t think a peach this sour was one the tree of knowledge bore. Now, I always said as my last resort I’d shave my head and seek out support, rob a bank and thanklessly act out the last half of Groundhog’s Day. I should have been a pair of salad tongs bounding across that tiled kitchen floor. And I’d call it a sin, but I don’t think a peach this sour was one the tree of knowledge bore. I should have been a pair of claws scuttling across those silent floors, and I’d jump right in, but I don’t think a beach this shallow was ever fit to call a shore. I’d call you Success to your face. I’d call you a greater success if we traded places. I, we, you--could have, would have, should have been there--by now.
