I thought you bought me for a sandwich or something I thought I was going to become butter toast to you— Now you’re pouring paint into my ears while I sleep? Stop, the dreams are nice but I always wake up with a headache And what are these you tuck inside my dough, Indigo? Great—
You go to the coast and have the ocean tempt you with freedom While painting me black from the inside out— Good job, You’ve managed to convince everyone I’m a rock I give up Pour all the colors you can inside me, I suppose Paint me scarlet red, stick a few pieces of fresh green grass on top And Start telling your friends I’m a tomato Then feed me to seagulls when you’re done, they’ll **** me out somewhere over Nantucket And some tourist there with an obnoxiously large camera will shout out Wow!, what a colorful lighthouse!
