lyrics

shapeless

sugar and pain
wooden eye, rubber shoe
stuck in my throat
because I wouldn't chew
slippery and shapeless
slippery and shapeless
in a dream I forgot
we began to comprehend

rhubarb and fanfare
in dutch, in the know
crumbled walls long ago
but still we blow
slippery and shapeless
slippery and shapeless
what is the use of hope
in the promised land?

shady and framed
as epic struggle, phantom foe
eat the crumbs first
while the plate is still full
slippery and shapeless
slippery and shapeless
what part of yes
don't I understand?

hey, hey, hey, hey (si, si, si, si)
no hay pulpo
banana seat stingray
purple three-speed go
slippery and shapeless
slippery and shapeless
do a donut in the yard
mud recipe pretend
