You say you're like a tree or a bus stop
With your hands by your side
Let's say you're like a field of tulips
Cheap gold flowers in the skyIf the calory comes
Is it really no surprise?
Count the calory cops
I'm allowing alibisDrag the shine off your stool and leave me
It's raining outside
Catch your life through some strange indifference
I don't want lullabiesParalyzed on parade
And ready to drop you know
Amazed and a mess
You may just stop me and goWell, he said he's a vegetarian
Well, there's animals in waterHere come the calory cops
Is it really no surprise?
And if the calory comes
I'm allowing alibisCount your life like some strange and different
Go one word at a time
Can't you hear the bells ringing
Get your hands off my skyIn a place where the words all just fall apart
With the sound of a stutter
A mutter in your heartLa la la la la la la la, la la la la
La la la la la la la la, la la la laClock the spokes off your wheels
It's safer just to ride
Put your heart in the back
I've not once seen you smileYou say you're like a tree or a bus stop
