lyrics

She couldn't wait to be old enough to get around
Old enough to sit back down on cushions made for men
On what's left of her apprehension

Couldn't see her though she stopped
Dad said "nothing built that can't be popped"
Put my mail in a balloon and sent
Nothing I'd want to see again, son

She had a guarded infancy, couldn't wait to be
Old enough to get around, be set down
On cushions made for men, on what's left
of her apprah

I was milling round the tree
color tone, I had no right to be alone
She followed nothing to its den
Swallowed up her apprehension

Business passes like the rest
Nothing, nothing really to contest
Only liars live in sins, it's been years
Since the dogs were brought in

She had a guarded infancy,
She couldn't wait to be
old enough to get around, be set down
On cushions made for men, on what's left
Of her apprah
