Residents - The Thing About Them lyrics

rate me

Now there ws this thing about them that caused me at times to doubt them,<br />

Or created conflict in my mind. Usually there was a he one, and there<br />

Also was a she one, but somehow they came out differently. And one of<br />

Them, when she was she, would smile and burn a hole in me; a hole that was<br />

Too hard for me to hide. Once I had a dream bout her, in a filed, alone<br />

Outside a tiny little cottage made of sticks. It was much to small to use<br />

It, so she bumped her head and bruised it trying to get through the tiny<br />

Door. Afterwards, I went to tell her, but it was he I felt who nodded at<br />

My words indifferently. And of course when this would happen, there was<br />

Still a she to tap up on my shoulder fromhe other side. But it wasn't her<br />

Who looked then, close perhaps, but like some bookend that had come<br />

Misshapen from it's mate. So I told myself there must be some way I can<br />

Make them just be who I want to be with all the time, 'cause it kept me at<br />

A distance, but my sensees kept insisting it was much more interesting<br />

Inside.<br />
