lyrics

Melody Magpie
Whistled in my ear
“The map you drew us,
Just isn’t clear”
What can I say?
I guess that’s the way
I know how to get there

Symptomatic
Of self-esteem
Stuffing push-up bras
Contriving themes
I hate to admit it
But, maybe I’m just a bit
Way too jealous

Everytime you lean in
For a kiss, you cough
This world is empty and I want off

Human beings
Can’t live things down
We build cemeteries
In the middle of towns
Oh, and hey
What did you want again
For your birthday?

Misses Magpie
Wish I was you
Feathers combed down
Your cares are few
Tell me why my love
They only care
For the pure white dove?

You jump the gun
On all of your shots
This world means nothing, but it’s all we got

Every time on the doctor’s table
Clean bill of health, you’re more than able
It’s all wrong
It’s always wrong

We’re seeking out clarification
Shouldn’t loons like you be on medication?
It’s all wrong
It’s always wrong

Try and try to pinpoint the root of it
Teacher’s pet falls to village idiot
It’s all wrong
It’s always wrong

They put the wrong fool in this scrawny body
A faulty slipped out of the human factory
It’s all wrong
Why am I wrong?

This life’s a poor fit, but there’s no refunds
