aching to pupate
aching to pupate
aching to pupate
aching to pupate
aching to pupate
aching to pupate
aching to pupate
aching to pupate
pu-pu-pate
pupate
pupate
pu-pu-pate
pupate
I should peddle butterflies
there`s a shortage in the city
i`ll stand on a street corner
mysterious and giddy
when the passersby passby
i will open up my trenchcoat
they will see the butterflies
dangling like fake rolexes
every morning i wake up with a purpose and a smirk
i`ll put on a fake mustache
I`ll drink a heineken and eat cornflakes
then i`ll call my mom and dad
tell them that i`m doing fine
or i`ll write a tipsy letter to a friend of mine
or i`ll jump on the bed waltzing madly with the broomstick
but before i leave the house i will fill my lips with lipstick
but peddling is a dirty sport
lots of competition in the city
everyone is on a street corner
all mysterious and giddy
some are selling bags and shoes
some are selling books and gold
i`ve been standing here for days
not one butterfly`s been sold
and how i`m aching to pupate
aching to pupate
aching to pupate
aching to pupate
aching to pupate
aching to pupate
aching to pupate
aching to pupate
pu-pu-pate
pupate
pupate
pu-pu-pate
pupate
