Fluid
Gerbils The Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And your skin feels just like skin
But your eyes are bluer than the oceans of the world
And I want to swim them again
Your nose smells like a nose
And your ears sound just like ears
But your lips taste sweeter than the sugar in my spoon
Your tongue tastes like a tongue
And your lungs breathe just like lungs
But your voice gives me goose bumps when you call my name
And I want to goose bump again
Your toes tap just like toes
And your knees knock just like knees
But when you dance you're more fluid than a bed sheet in the breeze
And I want to sleep in your hole
When you dance, you're more fluid than a bed sheet in the breeze
And I want to sleep in your hole
Your nails scratch just like nails
And your teeth bite just like teeth
But when your legs wrap around me, I no longer know
And I never want to go home.
