Lyrics
Cousins
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You found a sweater on the ocean floor
They're gonna find it if you didnt close the door
You and this model sit outside the side
In a house on a street they wouldnt park on the night
Dad was a risk taker
His was a shoe maker
You greatest hits 2006
Little listmaker
Caught in the melody
You wait in the car
You were born with ten fingers
And you're gonna use them all
Interest in colors I discovered myself
If your art life is gritty
You'll be toasting my health
If an interest in coats
You should be lining the walls
When your birth right is interest
You could just screw it all
Me and my cousins
And you and your cousins
Its a line that is always running
Me and my cousins
You and your cousins
I can feel it coming
You can turn your back on the bitter world
You can turn your back on the bitter world
You can turn your back on the bitter world
You can turn your back on the bitter world
Me and my cousins and you and your cousins
Its a line that's always running
Me and my cousins and you and your cousins
I can feel it coming
Me and my cousins and you and your cousins
Its a line that's always running
Me and my cousins and you and your cousins
I can feel it coming
