Nothing Painted Blue - Blooming, Buzzing lyrics

Conifers spreading their needles on suburban shag Ornaments shining, hanging from the lowermost Calipers spreading, measuring the dip and drag We were entwining ribbons round the whipping post It's time you took just a little Time to look just a little closer And that argument you thought was airtight Calendar pages in a 5 x 7 grid 3 or 4 spaces empty on the bottom row Cortical greyness Holidays appear in red [?] Paradigm cases drifting in the undertow It's time you took just a little Time to look just a little closer At that argument you thought was airtight From the d**h of the novel To the shock of the new You've got something to prove But no-one to prove it to You are not a pyramid You do not contain a king I'd worship everything you did If you ever did one blessed thing One blessed thing One blessed thing Put your leggings on You can watch them take your shape Slide the leggings off And you can watch the shape escape It's time you took just a little Time to look just a little closer At that argument you thought was air- Time you spent just a little Time just to vent a little anger at that oracle you thought was dead right
