Shelby Sifers - You Geranium, You Potato текст песни

Up in the highest skyscraper,

stretching itself towards the air,

well I jump off the roof,

so you could have proof

of gravity and why it's unfair.



Down in the deep pitts of Pittsburgh,

smothered in gravel and tar,

well I'd preach and I'd shout

and I'd wail and cry out

about who we were and who we still are.



Well sometimes you're like a geranium,

open your leaves to the sun.

But mostly you're like a potato,

you just sit in the dark and you never

have fun.



So you'll let yourself out the back door,

and climb yourself up in a tree.

And later come down,

still wearing that frown,

yeah even though the world looks the same.



So stop wasting your life filling ashtrays,

I saved you a seat on the bus.

And put empty photo frames up,

'cause each smile that you make

was forced and was fake,

but somehow I just love you more.



And there's never a time

when you don't feel like dying,

but somehow I just love you more.



I just love you more.
