Wow & Flutter

I’m in this room again
Serving drinks & noone is here but this muscled Mr Clean
This Arm & Hammer man looks at me and he says
Your kind of hot - What’s your game ? - How can I explain ?

Your words sound like an audio cassette that’s baking in the sun
In an old forgotten boombox - We’ve all left the power on
The very fabric’s frayed yea and the playback will make you shudder
All that I can focus on is the wow & flutter

I’m in this room again stuffing napkins in my ears
And we’re all so pissed off - The reinvented punk, queer
I haven’t got the time - After all I did this for years
So some are drunk on mainstreaming - Others addicted to being feared

The words sound like an audio cassette that’s baking in the sun
In an old forgotten boombox - We’ve all left the power on
And my soul is stretched - And my heart stutters
Everything I’ve ever feared is in the wow & flutter

So humans are like dogs
We’re happier in packs
Sniffing at our food and we’re
Sniffing in every crack
The hierarchy’s strict
We size each other up
It’s always been that way
Ever since we were pups

And the words sound like an audio cassette that’s baking in the sun
In an old forgotten boombox baby - We’ve all left the power on
The very fabric’s frayed yea and the playback will make you shudder
Danger and desire both in the wow & flutter

Right and wrong is learned in a sitcom & the bible is just a book
When we have an ear to lend we can hear the barking of man’s best friend

Right and wrong is learned in a pop song & the bible is just a book
If you have an ear to lend I swear I’ll bark like man’s best friend
