just a quail
02:27

my feathers don't shine brightly in the moonlight
i don't know how to sing a pretty song
like water off a duck's back, you seem to slip away
well, natural selection be damned, i'll be ok
i used to think i'd wanna be a bird of paradise
but now i'm happy being just a quail
i used to think i'd wanna be a bird of paradise
but now i'm happy being just a quail
you've got all your dances and your colors
while i'm over here just trippin' on my own feet
can't fly all too well, well it's not so hard to tell
i don't got the moves but i'm bobbing to my own beat
i used to think i'd wanna be a bird of paradise
but now i'm happy being just a quail
i used to think i'd wanna be a bird of paradise
but now i'm happy being just a quail

oh, bella
01:50

in all the world there's only one girl like you
there's no one else who does the things you do
who dances in the light
full of color, though black and white
no other one like you
oh, bella
you know the path to take, i know you do
piercing eyes of clearest crystal blue
a half-moon for a face,
not one spot out of place
a perfect sleepy muse
oh, bella

priscilla
02:13
|
|||
i can still see you all curled up in a sunbeam
poking around at all my keys and guitars
you've been cooped up inside this tiny little apartment
perking up at all the passing cars
never warmed up to me or anybody
jeni said she found you by the side of the road
when she was out of town, took care of you like my own
but now i'm moving out
and i gotta go
but i'm gonna miss you
i hope you know
oh priscilla, you're a walking living shadow
two bright eyes peeking from behind the blinds
oh priscilla, scared of your own shadow
oh a better cat, i'm never gonna find
oh priscilla, you're a walking living shadow
two bright eyes watching the world go by
oh priscilla, never been in a meadow
oh i'm moving out, so i guess this is goodbye
oh priscilla

follow you there
02:23
|

oh honey, what's on your mind
oh honey, what's on your mind
is it leaving this for the open air
and singing songs to ward off the bears
if it is
i will follow you there
oh honey, what's on your mind
oh honey, i see the signs
the sighs you sigh past highway signs
the weight of the world, though you wanna fly
by and by
i will follow you there

noble gas
01:34
|
|||
i'm just a bunch of atoms
i've got my pros and cons
keep to myself, mostly -
just me and my electrons
i'm just a lonely gas
doing my lonely thing
i fill the room but don't ever go
outside my orbital ring
here i stand inertly,
valiantly valence free of any charge
i'll pass
but periodically i feel a reactivity
and believe it's not all hot gas
no time to dwell!
i'm breaking out of my shell
we're flammable and unstable
forget about the whole table
don't care if we are,
could burn bright like a star
i'd love to make a bond with you
cuz that's what atoms do, o-o-o

significant value
01:29
|

probably probability won’t help in the day to day
unnerve me to see a bell curve or three while im just drawing away
but maybe it can help you see that this is not a fallacy
its not noise, nor an error, you belong with me
you mean much more to me than a mean or median
this is not random, its true
if you plot a curve through the points of my heart
they’d lead me right to you
95 percent interval that you should be with me
this is not random, its true
if you plot a curve through the points of my heart
they’d lead me right to you
youuu
are a significant value
