It's yr birthday today, and I won't be there
I just wanted to say, have a good time regardless
b/c it's 90 degrees, like never before
and you're lit like the candles on yr cake, and you're still looking for a job
and we'll swap faces w/ the portraits and listen to Songs of the Silent Age
The river looks so calm, as I hear jazz played beside
They all listen to Morell, or gaze when he's quiet
Now the church bells are ringing for someone else's wedding day
As we see the corn start growing, I know the harvest is on its way
Won't you slide over to me, it's cooler in the shade
You can whisper to me what you're thinking
Only babies know why they're sobbing,
Only babies know why they're smiling
I just wanted to tell you something I could not think of in the moment.
