lyrics

Why I oughta
I'll be damned
Bowl me over
Knock me down

Like a mouse wheel
Tail chase
2 horse boat race
Up a broken staircase
Sing a ring of roses

In a fleeting glance
A sideways look
A book to judge a
Cover
Can I read it?

Why I oughta
I'll be damned
Bowl me over
Knock me down
With a feather
You don’t say
Well I never
Stone the crows

Got some backward logic
Hiding in your lodging
Turnstile on the freestyle
Bubble busk in drizzle…
what?!

Get the impressionism
Of opportunism
All eyes on the pavlova walkin’ over

Why I oughta
I'll be damned
Bowl me over
Knock me down
With a feather
You don’t say
Well I never
Stone the crows

Changing gear, trying to steer away from
the driving metaphors baby yeah
Pick a date, make a date, check yourself, break a date
Leave the door open for hope yeah
