Album: How We Quit The Forest
The ostrich and the egret
Had a very fine flat to let
Figurine hutch, no the place wasn't much, but they
Got a peacock
His belongings were meager but,
He was pretty, would bring good luck
They would sing songs all aroung the piano and
Do the cakewalk
He would say what he's gonna do
He would say what he wanted to
Ostrich and egret were filled with regret, but the
Rent's well worth him
He felt things that they'd never felt
Like the slap of a feather belt
So till they sat by the fireplace silent
A chill ran through them
Ostrich and egret and peacock had very small dreams
Picturing them just reminded them of calendar scenes
Nobody's laughing when everyone's weeping, it seems
So that's how we quit the forest
The scene wasn't what it used to be
The scene is never what it used to be
So, that's how we quit the forest
The scene wasn't what it used to be
The scene is never what it used to be
So, that's how we quit the forest
