From "Tender is the Heart"
I could captain a tugboat
Based on all the crap I've pulled
And I could captain a tugboat
A latex hat and you'd be fooled
Now the Loser's Union
Can't protect me anymore
Now the Loser's Union
Can't protect me anymore
I'm a kiss on your ring
A beautifully clipped wing
Useless but so beautiful
And I'm angelically blind
A tickle in your mind
Faceless but so beautiful
And if I breathe enough
Just to make through to the next recess
I'll be fine
But it takes more spit
Then I can drum up
To pretend these standard issue
Combat boots shine
Silly one, silly one
Silly one, silly one
Dried laughs in the pantry
Pixie dust with every meal
Scratch marks on the dashboard
Cheshire Cat behind the wheel
Now the Loser's Union
Can't protect me anymore
Now the Loser's Union
Can't protect me anymore
I'm a kiss on your ring
A beautifully clipped wing
Useless but so beautiful
And I'm angelically blind
A tickle in your mind
Faceless but so beautiful
And the Queen's brave men
To arms, thus defend
The labyrinth hold
Of their honeycomb
But the hand
That shakes the hand
That shakes the tree
Takes the honey pot home
Silly one, silly one
Silly one, silly one
I'm a kiss on your ring
A beautifully clipped wing
Useless but so beautiful
And I'm angelically blind
A tickle in your mind
Faceless but so beautiful
And if I breathe enough
Just to make through to the next recess
I'll be fine
But it takes more spit
Then I can drum up
To pretend these standard issue
Combat boots shine
I should laugh
It's funny because it's true
And there's a half truth hiding
In every funny things I do
The other half
You can't believe a word
The truth is that
The truth is that absurd
Silly one, silly one
Silly one, silly one
