This song is consistently stuck in my head this week...among other songs. ie Chemicals Collide? Strange head of mine.

And now as i would judge and say you're aloof


but you know the truth is a seed

you know what you need is a conflagration

cause when i see the blood

and the bits of your broken tooth

it gives me the proof that i need

it's the proof that you bleed

it's a revelation

yeah it's a revelation, it's a revelation



I thought you were a life-sized paper doll

propped up in the hardware store

propped up on the front lawn watching the parade

of those legionnaires with two-by-four's

as they're marching off to war

yeah they're marching off to war



I didn't know what you were made of

the colour of your blood, what you're afraid of

are you made of calcium or are you carbon-based

and if you're made of calcium i'll have to take a taste

cause, listen, calcium is deadly tender to the tooth

and it's one sure-fire way to know if you're

MX-missile-proof, oh no, or if you're just aloof



You were in the ground in late november

when the leaves in earth are down

did you, did you think they would remember

how you almost made stage-out

cause when you're running for the game against alfonso

and you fell upon the ground and chipped a tooth

oh no, listen, i really have surprised her

to learn that you are really MX-missile-proof



Oh, i thought you were a life-sized paper doll

and you're propped up in the hardware store

you were propped up on the front lawn watching the parade of those legionnaires with two-by-four's

as they're marching off to war

yeah they're marching off to war

oh they're marching
