The Devil Whale Television Zoo lyrics

Someone I love is jumping off a bridge
The television switch is the thing that keeps me up
The telemarket bitch is the boil in my blood
You should be here
My bed's big enough
You're red incandescent
It burns holes in my clothes
I left them on your floor
So you'd remember who I was

If I'm hanging my hat on the wrong hook
I can crawl through the window with the stuff that I took
With my diplomat's skin and a boot and a golden hairpin

I put my fingers in your mouth
And said let's begin.
And the knife that you wield it's covered in sin
You said “I'll leave it on the porch”
I said “no please bring it in”

I knew a man
Who's scared to break rules

And he built a pair of scissors
That can cut molecules
He built a television zoo
To observe all the fools late at night

But he stared at the screen
Til his glasses decayed
And he sat in his room
Cause he was afraid
And he lied to his friends
Said he's getting so close to inventing the world's
First room temperature super conductor

I want your carved skin
I want your broken limbs
I want your carved skin
I want your broken limbs
Yes, I want the whole tree
I want the whole tree
