Wisdom Teeth Song

Thank you for letting us stay

Sometimes I lose my mind

But you know me, I always

Manage to keep what nobody needs

Like when you'd rest your tanned hides

Against the door frame

And the black walnut trees and

The sumac and starlings

Were lost in the swell of the creek

And I leaned back like a woman

Baptized in the river of sticks

Oh, silly rabbit, sometimes everyone gets tricked

The museum of natural history

With its new blood and fur and ivory

Left me wanting to know so much more of this world

But you know me, I always

Manage to leave what I most need

Like when the ice broke

And the lake, it did swallow you whole

And the black walnut trees

And the sumac is gone and

The starlings fled from the east

And we're caught in the drifts

Now but we're heading to mexico city
