John Vanderslice - dear sarah shu Lyrics lyrics

rate me

dear sarah shu,

I leave for you

all I knew about this job

on microcassette for further review

what it meant to me

how you'll make it dear, hopefully

it's dangerous here

yes it's dangerous here

peer round corners with dental mirrors,

heed the threats, taking cautionary measures,

in the end, it is love

you'll have to learn to survive

dear sarah shu,

I leave for you

all I knew about this job

on palmcorder for future review

your office will flood every night,

it's water, don't try to fight it

suspend all your files using

my system of hanging wires

break apart what I connected

show what I only suggested

'cause in the end it was love

I had to learn to survive

picture me by the window sill

wrapped in copper wire, my autumn sleeves,

with torn up directives

spread round the floor like shoreham leaves

picture me locking office door, now

kneeling down on the floor,

screaming: “protection,

I can make it, I can make it!”

peer round corners with dental mirrors,

heed the threats, taking cautionary measures,

but in the end, it is love

you'll have to learn to survive

so long, sarah shu,

farewell to you,

stay calm, stay sweet,

regards from the other side of the teeth

break apart what I connected

show what I only suggested

'cause in the end it was love

we had to learn to survive
