preyhound - sand dollars in a silver pail Lyrics




Over the grapevine they kept
Travel magnets on the fridge
Stocked with pears and heavy cream
My great-aunts are kitchen witches
I thought by now i'd be salting scrambled eggs
In the city adjacent they kept
Traditional japanese decor
An old yeller and swimming pool
My cousins and i spent 4th of july as mermaids
I thought by now i'd be setting off morning glories
Off the bay they kept sand dollars in a silver pail
The back porch always baby blue and dewy
My grandpa and i ate cherries
We spit the pits into the ditch
I thought by now a cherry tree would've grown

What a dream i had!
I was 20 turning 60 fast
I was sitting very still, hands over my ears
Thinking very very hard about how i'll fill up the years

Well fine
It's a good day to be 9

What a day i had!
I got so very mad
An ache i had in my chest i reached for then lost
An itch i didn't have the depth to try and gloss

Oh well
It's a good day to be 12

No need for purpose
No need to have a "why?"
To only matter by virtue of being alive

It's a good day

It's a good day
