Bleach Bums

from Aja by Invisible Hand

	/

lyrics

Lazing on a beach, the waves are crashing into banks of coral reefs;
So loud. The gulls compete for scraps of food;
I bleach my thoughts of things to do
My mind is all on you

While you’re writing an epic for the man,
This beach will calm our aching heads
You grab me by the neck and say:
“I’ve been burned a thousand times before
Don’t let it happen again
Turn this burn to a tan”

Don’t make my angel blush she’ll turn too red
I curse the devil’s callous touch.
Relax and ease your mind I’ll save you from the sharks that lurk in office rooms
Don’t make me slit his throat

Winter comes without a warning
Snow is like the sand that’s falling down
You grab me by the neck and say:
“My heart is cold from a winter storm.
Don’t let it happen again
Turn this heart to a son”
