Home Remedies - Those Things

{Intro}
One of those things about you I like
Is your respect for insect life
And how you gently help them find the kitchen window

{Verse}
Align the rows
Await the bees
In our one plant garden of green
Where spring is forever and shoes are illegal
And our first tomato
Like the setting sun
Red and yellow blend into one
More reason to say “Fuck industrial agriculture”

{Chorus}
How mother nature herself sprouted me to be
A sunflower seaside facing east
Overflowin with seeds

{Verse}
Our freezer’s filled
With composted crud
The future stinks, at least it would
If you didn’t leave your notes inside my margins
Your asterisk
To clarify
And at the risk of feelin fine
I'll take your sunburnt hand in mine
New Jersey knows
That I’ll be back
It’s a matter of time it’s a matter of fact
A shiny red pin on my bedroom map
And as creature comforts crawl away
Or hide from me as they migrate
Up the coast to the Garden State

{Chorus}
How mother nature herself sprouted me to be
A sunflower seaside facing east
Overflowin with seeds (X2)

{Outro}
And those little bugs that live on the sill
Just a tiny part of the life that we built
One of those things I love about you
