When I disappear, do you fear for the sister I took? When I disappear, it is clear I am up to no good I am drearily blunt letting this bedwetting cosmonaut "Son, the last thing you'll realize you need is what you've already got"
So touch me or don’t Just let me know Where you’ve been
Please drop me a line with a hook and some raw bleeding bait (one, two, three, four) For I am uncaught and still swimming alone in the lake (five, six, seven, eight) Shimmering under a moon made in anger and angst (I was the one who was always repeating it) Shimmering like a penny out of reach in the subway grate (Shimmering like a coin kept safe away, you never listen to anything)
So touch me or don’t Just let me know Where you’ve been
We could leave it alone, I’m sure there’s someone who knows Where you’ve been
You could never work well with our group Not with the faults we found So we've fixed you with cement galoshes And no one can save you now Unless you have friends among fish There’ll still be no air to breathe You could drink up the entire ocean We’ll still find someone to be everything we know that you’ll never be
So touch me or don’t Just let me know Where you’ve been
Or we could leave it alone I’m sure there’s someone who knows Where you’ve been
