Cute Is What We Aim For lyrics : "Lyrical Lies"

An old man gave me a tip he said
Don't waste your time with politics he said
Just chase skirts instead

Life is too short and you're almost dead he said
I met a woman once
Gave her my best shot

But never did I talk and talk and talk
If I had her back
I'd be as real as my age

I so don't blame them
I wouldn't do the same
But I can blame them

I'd sing her this

You want to be dressed in poetry

But imagery doesn't fit
And you want resizing
But darling dear

Get a grip

And I think what I just wrote is going over my head

I'm stealing lines from myself
And what I said was never said
It's just a lyrical lie

Made up in my mind

And you want to be dressed in poetry

But imagery doesn't fit
And you want resizing
But darling dear

Get a grip

You're moving but not aware

You're drowsy without a care
Except keeping your whites behind your lids
And your lids are your best canvas

I can only imagine what you're painting
What you're painting
And your body on my mattress is proof

And your makeup on my pillow is proof
But do you think I'm telling you the truth?


And you want to be dressed in poetry
But imagery doesn't fit
And you want resizing

But darling dear
Get a grip


And you want to be dressed in poetry
But imagery doesn't fit
And you want resizing

But darling dear
Get a grip
