Clouds taste better than dirt
That's why you must evaporate above the earth Pressure can make the clouds burst Soon you wind up in the mud Just where you were Leaves may not reasons to believe in love Can't you see to me she means the whole wide world Queen bee shields my eyes From the force inside of my mind And the force they may you blind Is beautiful On the imaginary side Even bored it is exciting Being a drone is better than being alone Bees may not be reasons to believe in love Can't you see to me she means the whole wide world Ain't yourself that fingers mean fun Shake a quarter flip in the air is gone In your silent fears it's first A little bit of help and the tournament's over [and you try and get sober?] See the bladder bleed from an itty bitty hole Do the weird blitzing no, no, no You bet your sweater should be all the way gone These/bees may bot be reasons to believe in love Can't you see to me she means the whole wide world |
