Calico

Bend a shoulder to your lover
Sinking slow in the August heat
I am older, half my mother
But God this time just carries me
Could you hold her, could you love her
As you did in humidity
Since the winter you've gone colder
Purple hands and purple feet

It's comical and bright
How your head's on right ways
Just calico inside
With the head on sideways

Undress my body before I go
Soon babies thighs go indigo
Hold your index at my waistline
Where you won such a careful love
We are only half our mothers
Look how this time just ruins us

It's comical and bright
How your head's on right ways
Just calico inside
With the head on sideways

Calendar lover you tire so quick
If you'd say it out loud, well I could lose in my fist
But I'm only a sweetheart when you see it fit
I'll say

We're comical and bright
With your hands on my waist
I'm calico inside
With my head on sideways
