Flat On Every Side

lyrics

Hubcaps & the sun
keep the globe warm.
I wish you were here with me.
I wish I wasn’t so cold.

I wish I was colder.
I wish I was dark.
I wish I was there right now.
But I’m glad I’m gone.

The wall stares right back at me.
The downstairs is far.
I wish I was 10 stories tall.
I wish I could hide.

Look at you dancing on the sword.
Sounds like I might just be really bored.
But I was thinking just a little more
about the fact I feel like I have nothing to do.

The walls were thick, but I knew they lied
when they told there ain’t nothing on the other side.
But I know better cause I been outside.
I got cold, so I went back in.

I just wanna get something off my chest:
I like my nose.
But I like your nose, too.
It ain’t bad.

Is India really that yellow?
Could China be that pink?
I was told I was red, white, and blue.
I said, yeah. So’s France.

The used to be round.
But I wonder who can resign
to the time when it ain’t round no more.
It’s just flat on every side.
