Joanna Newsom - Clam, Crab, Cockle, Cowrie lyrics

rate me

That means no Where i come from I am cold, out waiting for the day to come I chew my lips And i scratch my nose Feels so good to be a rose Oh don't Don't you lift me up Like i'm that shy no-no-no-no-no, just give it up See, there are bats all dissolving in a row Into the wishy-washy dark that can't let go I cannot let go So i thank the lord And i thank his sword Though it be mincing up the morning, slightly bored Oh oh oh, morning Without warning Like a hole Oh, and i watch you go There are some mornings when the sky looks like a road There are some dragons who were built to have and hold And some machines are dropped from great heights lovingly And some great bellies ache with many bumblebees And they sting so terribly I do as i please Now i'm on my knees Your skin is something that i stir into my tea And i am watching you And you are starry, starry, starry (and you will never Ever know how Very sorry you will be ... I am) And i'm tumbling down And i check a frown Well just look around That's why i love this town To see me; Serenaded hourly Celebrated sourly Dedicated dourly Waltzing with the open sea Clam, crab, cockle, cowrie Will you just look at me! Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh
