Aviary - Skylar Gudasz

Kiss me now and say you’ll be sweet like this to anybody

Even the drunks on the street seem to have poems

They need to tell you

And me, I swore off long ago listening

When the moon’s like this

To people who seem to have half an idea of what they know

Stop getting sentimental

This is just a one-night stand

In a fancy restaurant, got you thinking

You own things you cannot

In fact I don’t know you

In fact you could be dangerous

Should I be calling the maîitre d'?

Who assumes you are close to me

So close I would put you in my will

Well I’m a benefactor ubiquitous

With no possessions to leave

Save my sewing machine and a taste for the kill

So kiss me now and say you’ll be sweet like this to anybody

So I can get on this flight, a baggageless lady

Back to a borrowed country

Whose postcards boast beautiful birds

An aviary for getaway experts
