Parallelogram (I am a triangle)




All the perpendicular streets
Are wearing down my blistered feet
Browsing for crap at the local mall
Shopping but wanting nothing at all
Strolling circles going around
Beating paths in a squareville town


Now I'm looking in the mailbox
To tell me all the things I got
I'm staring down the mailman
I doesn't think he understands
I'm dropping in the mailbox
A thought to make her think a lot
When she opens up the package
I'm hoping there's no damages

I'm gonna mail her a parallelogram
Try to tell her who I am cuz
I'm a tricky trapezoid
And a geometric boy I am
I am a triangle I got three sides to every scene
I am a triangle I got a hundred and eighty degrees

I failed test I couldn't study well
Hoping chemistry could catch the spell
Using a multiplying voice
I began adding up her points
Thinking always she's on my mind
If paths don't cross what good are our lines?


Now I'm looking in the mailbox
To tell me all the things I got
I'm staring down the mailman
I doesn't think he understands
I'm dropping in the mailbox
A thought to make her think a lot
When she opens up the package
I'm hoping there's no damages
I'm gonna mail her a parallelogram
Try to tell her who I am cuz
I'm a tricky trapezoid
And a geometric boy I am
I am a triangle I got three sides to every scene
I am a triangle I got a hundred and eighty degrees







She sounded so sweet









I say one day she'll wake on her own
Hey hey some day she'll claim no control
And then pretend I send letters from home
(Notebooks of thoughts)
Tapes of tunes that time forgot
Laughter and jokes, pictures and comics
Pages of lyrics with my name on it
Flowers and poems and candy cigarettes
Funny little faces she'll never forget

She sounded so sweet; She promised she'd write by the end of the week
She acted so kool; She promised me she'd call when she went back to school
My confused pride is bruising to hide
When we last shared the phone
We were together alone

She sounded so sweet; She promised she'd write by the end of the week
She acted so kool; She promised me she'd call when she went back to school
My giddy up and go is wishing to know
When she prances in the snow
Who'lll be warming her toes?

My incisive heart is bursting apart
When we last shared the phone
We were together alone

She sounded so sweet; She promised she'd write by the end of the week
She acted so kool; She promised me she'd call when she went back to school

I say one day she'll wake on her own
Hey hey some day she'll claim no control
And then pretend I send letters from home
(Notebooks of thoughts)
Tapes of tunes that time forgot
Laughter and jokes, pictures and comics
Pages of lyrics with my name on it
Flowers and poems and candy cigarettes
Funny little faces she'll never forget

She sounded so sweet; She promised she'd write by the end of the week
She acted so kool; She promised me she'd call when she went back to school
