lyrics

In a pinch, you can call on your family
Call in the cavalry
Pull down the shades
Needing rest,
You could dust off your Calloways
In mercury’s retrograde
August thru may

Like a butter knife, falling through margarine
Like a fruit fly that’s caught in some glue
Every postcard is written by someone
Someone longing that you were there too

On a weekday, you’re struck by my vanity
Locked in the pattern that heartache accrues
We were left on a doorstep to fend it off,
Arching and bending
And living up to

Like a laundry line, left out and weathered
Like a chicken that’s sent off to stew
Like a blister, created by friction of
Someone longing that you were there too

Like a butter knife, falling through margarine
Like a fruit fly that’s caught in some glue
Every postcard is written by someone
Someone longing that you were there too
Like a laundry line, left out and weathered
Like a chicken that’s sent off to stew
Like a blister, created by friction of
Someone longing that you were there too
