Eat the button on my Shirt
**********
Forget the demons in polyester suits
The ones with liquid paper
spiraling down the empty well
take a moment
just a moment
and never drink and tell
eat cheese and crackers
and talk about caviar
sail on a row boat
and try to hold your breath
as the water spills over the tub
but never ever
drink and tell
a razor is just a razor
till someone has a bad day
a camel is just a camel
till the desert is starved of rain
I never thought about him
till the bottom of a bottle
i'll never whisper with a drink
and i'll never drink and tell
bottle caps and plastic wrap
little legos across the floor
pillows that aren't just pillows
but clouds in the misty air
a glass of water a bottle of *****
and a strange pickle smell
i swear to god
That i'll never drink and tell
a question is a question
a tear is not a free pass
and i just can't choke them down
these buttons beneath my chest hair
I promise i swear
that i'll never ever again
drink and tell...
