Atop a Cake -

I lie on a sofa awake

It’s what you said last night

You’d like us on top of a cake

But you won’t let me take a bite

Flowers arriving in fleets

Can’t we talk about this?

Why let the State in our sheets?

Can’t we do without it?

Well, I don’t mean to wind you up

But I’d like to slow it down

How do I remain a pup?

If you put me in a gown?

What’s it gotta do with you?

What’s it gotta do with me?

How could I lose control when you’re driving from the backseat?

What’s it gotta do with you?

What’s it gotta do with me?

How could I lose control when you’re driving from the backseat?

Corners begin to repeat

I think we’re getting lost

We walked to the end of the street

But we were bitten by the frost

So if you have to thaw me out

You can put me in a pail

Can we take another route?

I don’t want to wear a veil

What’s it gotta do with you?

What’s it gotta do with me?

How could I lose control when you’re driving from the backseat?

What’s it gotta do with you?

What’s it gotta do with me?

How could I lose control when you’re driving from the backseat?

I’ll wait in the lobby for someone to show

And if they don’t come, I will know where to go

The bodies are lined up outside in the hall

I don’t want to decay in a mall

If everything you say is true

Then why would I disagree?

How can I lose control???

What’s it gotta do with you?

What’s it gotta do with me?

How could I lose control when you’re driving from the backseat?

When you’re driving from the backseat
