I'm feelin' a lil fragile
I think I'll go
Paint the town

It's raining outside now
I hope it stops
We paint our lips
Discuss our chagrin
Knee highs
Newness
Once again
Begin again.

I been tryin' to
Marry myself off
Too early
Mama and I lament our losses
And I think
This is gonna be a beautiful
Movie I'm gonna make
Someday.

I got everything you don't
Tattoos and lace
I dyed the top of my hair purple
Like I did at our beginning
How sentimental
To end it all.

I think I'll go paint the town
In whatever way
With some fierce ladies in tow
We don't got the answers
But we got the body
That draw
Me
I got the body
The fate.

Let's boogie.
