Avocado Baby - The Wave Pictures
When you came around
and offered nothing new
nothing old
nothing I could use
I wondered when did you
give up on the way
we spent our spring days
constantly talking
finding our voices amazing
You called me over
though I drive you crazy
My eye's still as strong as the avocado baby
Though my hands start shaking in the second I awaken
I am soft and still and lazy
and my tongue is on the run
and it's only just begun
Did you ever see a good joke turn so sour
My tongue is on the run
and it's having so much fun
I'm growing younger by the hour
I should wait until the spring
wait until the spring
but my carpet is crawling with crocodiles
and a dozen porcupines point their needles in my thumb
Now tippy Tina tippy-toes into the picture
with a rolling thumb and finger
Tippy Tina tippy-toes into the picture
with a rolling thumb and finger figure
You called me over
though I drive you crazy
My eye's still as strong as the avocado baby
Though my hands start shaking in the second I awaken
I am soft and still and lazy
and my tongue is on the run
and it's only just begun
Did you ever see a good joke turn so sour
my tongue is on the run
and it's having so much fun
I'm growing younger by the hour
