Lyrics

[Intro]
[percussive acoustic guitar strumming with palm muting]
[Verse 1]
[mid-range male vocals]
Sat upon a certain shelf
Had a certain look and feel
Broken with a left-hand cheek
Didn't mean to see it always so simple
Now it's in abundance
Smarted people wonder why
Now I see the warm-gem fish
And I don't need a reason not to know
[vocalizations]
Ta da da [guitar accents]
Oh
Ta da da
Oh
Ta da da
Ta da da
Ta da da
Oh
Ta da da
Ta da da
Ta da da
[Verse 2]
Thought about the plastic pill
Wasn't something that I needed more
Thought about the way you felt
Awkward is a word of comfort
And I don't have to say these things
Let the same thing just look down my chin
Not for crying, see that people
Laughing like a childhood, oh don't you know
Oh don't you know
[Chorus]
[strained high-register vocals]
Oh
Ta da da
Oh
Don't da da
Ta da da
[Outro]
[sustained melodic vocalizations]
Ooh
Go away
Go away
Ooh
Go away
Go away
Ooh
Go away
Go away
Ooh
Go away
[sustained melodic vocalizations]
Ooh
Go away
Go away
Ooh
Go away
Go away
Ooh
Go away
Go away
Ooh
Go away
